Help me figure it out. Ink is sprayed from the left side of the picture. Always from one side. Changed LD1, LD2 modes. Adjusted head gap. Temperature 23C, humidity 40-50%. If you try to wipe with a stain, a black and red mark remains on the fabric. That is, it is black and purple dust.We also installed an ionizer. No result.

did you do a good cleaning? Check the cap stations for any wear, and the wipers. You can also replace the filters in the mist collector just to the left of the heads if you haven't already.

I've also had occasions where the laser will work out of adjustment slightly on our 6042's, so it's worth checking the head height in multiple locations on the table. It might be setting the head height farther than it thinks it is.

cleaning is done regularly. everything according to the instructions. the mist filter is cleaned and replaced regularly too. we don't skimp on this.

It's interesting that it appears randomly. We print 6 cases. The coating appears on one, then on two. Then on all, then on none. It doesn't depend on the position on the table.
