Ink Marks on the Media
Media Extensions
Printed surface smearing roll:
As the media is printed and the image is coming out from the
printer, the natural curl of the media causes it to rub against
the roll of media installed in the printer. This causes image
smearing.
In addition to this, if the out-coming media sticks against the
roll, because the ink is not dry or because of static (some
Polyester films get electrostatically charged) it could cause the
media to re-feed into the printer.
Make sure that the media extensions are installed onto the
printer (
shown below
). The extensions don't reduce the way
media is charged, but the increased distance between the roll
and the out-coming media, reduces the probability of having
both surfaces being attracted (and smears).
