Hello guys.
I'm new to the T-jet2
I have the FastArtist & FastRip 1.0.1 ver.
Now I put the Upgrade to the 1.5.1 ver.

Can someone teach me or help me, how to make an Underbase for the Black T-shirt. or how to do the setting on FastRip.

And what setting should I work of white t-shirts.
My Color are not coming up real good.

Thank You for your time and I hope someone can Help me.

Same here, I just purchased a T Jet 2 and upgraded to the Fast Artist 2.0 and Fast RIP 10

I have read the instructions several times and understand most of it.

I am a little unsure of the best settings for white and Dark

I have created a Queue for each and need help setting the best configurations especially the Import Options for the underbase.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I use both CorelDraw and Illustrator

You can download Alex's very popular and helpful "Idiot's Guide To Using FastArtist / FastRIP" at this link:

I have seen both of those and they don't do much to explain the import image options of RIP 10

With RIP10 the easiest way to have your images underbased is to have them on a single transparent layer. Then simply drag and drop the image into the RIP. You have to setup your "import options" under "Queue Properties" first. When using this method RIP10 will build your underbase from the transparency of the file and use your queue settings you have previously set.

You can still print directly to the RIP from Illustrator/CorelDraw/Photoshop however most users we speak with prefer the drag and drop printing as it makes for an easier work flow.

By the way, there are two other workflows in FastArtist 2. The workflow showcased in my "Idiot's Guide" still works, and there is another workflow for images with transparent backgrounds.

P.S. What kind of T-Jet do you have? You can try these settings for Import Options if you have a T-Jet 2:

Check "Hide Image dialog and use the following settings"
Check "Create Prime Layer from transparency if it exists"
Select Underbase Print Mode: Underbase Photo 1440 HS
Underbase Strength: Strong
Gama adjustment (leave at default)
Choke the underbase 'Stop white underbase from peeking out': Medium
Highlight White: None
Underbase repeats: 1
Color passes: 1

Ok.
How much I have to pay for the New Fast Rip and FastArtist.

Because. I was Able to download the FastArtist 2 and Fast Rip 10 but the set up is for the T-jet Blazzer.
So I put the printer pack and it works but.
When I'm about to print it said Donggle Error

Do you have an older version of FastArtist / FastRIP with the security dongle?

Yes. I do.
I have the Fast Artist 1.0.1 with FastRip 7.2 or 8.2
And I have the Fast Artist 1.5.1 with Fast Rip 9.0
By the way I do Have the Dongle...

Fast Artist 1.5.1 I get a lot of problems.
