Newbie Here. I've printed 4 designs so far with no problems. Don't know what I'm doing different, but I've wasted 3 sheets of 13x18 waterproof film on a simple one-color design that, inexplicably, is coming out of the printer perfectly - except for the right 1/3 of the image that is just a band of straight lines. Imagine printing a picture, then taking an eraser and swiping straight down the right edge. I'm using Photoshop, an Epson 1400 with AccuRip. Help me please guys. Thanks!

Have you tried printing it without your rip software? Try printing a fast draft on plain paper to see if it still does that to diagnoise what the problem could be. If it still does that, its most likely your printer. For printer issues - try cleaning your heads, etc. For rip software, check all your settings.

Thank you.... I changed the settings to print without the rip software and it printed just fine. I changed the settings back and it's printing the logo.... except on that right margin area that was printing that band of lines.... it's now printing a narrow distorted version of the logo. Pulling up the software manual now to troubleshoot.....
Ok. I was setting up my new page size within Photoshop's Page Setup and the Print menu. Seems Accurip required that I pull up their setup menu and change it there as well. I was mistaken that once it was setup, all changes could be made within the drawing program. Guess not. I would not have been able to sleep until I got that printed! Thanks for the ideas!

Sorry, couldn't be more helpful! Glad you figured it out though.
this just happened to me too, im not printing through photoshop though, im printing files directly in accurip.. i wonder if its because im using a trial version?

OMG! That's exactly what it was doing!! Launch AccuRip, go to File>Setup and make sure your media size is the size of the film you are using.
