Question Warping Substrate - HP Latex 365

I hear you on the temperatures but what number of passes do you use on these? Sometimes I want to go a bit faster but then the ink doesn't dry so you have to put an interval between the passes or just increase the pass number.
you cannot run adhesive vinyl any faster then 8pass. You can get 6p to work but you have to drop your saturation way down and you won't like the output

Thanks for the all the responses. I understand the passes etc now better after watching some HP vids too, but the only way i can stop the substrate warping inside the curing zone is by printing at 70 degrees, 16 passes, and 80% which isn't giving me very bold blacks/colours any more and has made the printer so slow to print a job its affecting my work output (I was using 10 passes before). And this is just trying to get the vinyl to work, not even got to paper and pp which also warp and touch the curing plates yet...

I want the 265 back :big laugh:
Who trained you on your 365? It is light years past the 260/265.
