Solution 3:
The Highlight White settings in FastARTIST are wrong. You may actually be printing white ink ON TOP
of the CMYK colors. Reload the image into FastARTIST and run the Underbase/Highlight Wizard again.
Try not applying a Highlight or toning down the Highlight.
Solution 4:
Dry ink may be causing the Print Head to not seal properly. Due to the nature of the white ink pigment,
it will build up faster on the capping station and on the wiper blade. Dry White ink around the rim of the
Capping Station will interfere with the printer pulling ink out of the cartridge during a Head Cleaning
cycle. Use a sponge foam tipped swab and cleaning uid or water to clean the
areas noted below.
Perform DAILY cleaning of these items.
For a complete description on cleaning these parts, refer to Chapter 13 - Daily, Weekly and Monthly
