I know this issue can be beat to death but what is with this thing and not printing red! I've been emailing back and forth with Anthony in FL, he's given me things to try but to no avail. I'm printing from PhotoshopCS2.
This is my setup
print with preview
under the preview it says "color management"
let photoshop determine colors
working CMYK usweb coate (SWOP V2)
relative intent calorimetric

into Rip
print quality 720x720
image color management
ICM method:ICM disabled
ICM intent: graphics
Document options
Advanced printing features enabled
Printer features
Color apperance: photo normal
Layer type: color layer auto/mask
Color passes: 1
White passes: 1
output profile: Auto select
RGB source profile: NTSC 1953
CMYK source profile: none
media type: dark color cotton
generate pure blacks: no
true spot colors: no
print direction: unidirectional
white ink density: medium density
black ink/underbase behavior:default
auto white highlight thresh Hold: 6%
set and repeat pattern label: no step and repeat

this is what we do to send it to the Rip program. DTG rip 4.0
any ideas?

yes the nozzle checks are fine, in fact the only thing (color) that had one or two lines missing were the white. I'll have to try the highlight adjustment.

Things like this make me wonder if screen printing would have been easier.. ) but I had issues with my Versa Camm too.. guess it's just a learning curve. I know it can be done... time will tell.
