I own a Texjet Echo. I have noticed that after washing the t-shirt the colors of the print becomes softer (with and without pretreatment). To correct I have done 2 passes (White T-shirts and Color). With 2 passes the colors change. It looks like the printer is not putting enough ink (CMYK). I have no head problem. All jets are clean.
Is there any way to increase the amount of ink (CMYK) in the RIP?
When using 50% or 100% quality, the amount of ink is the same (according to the ink cost calculator).
I have no problem with White ink, only CMYK.

Hi,

Probably you need to update your RIP software to a newest version because this sounds like the cost calculator is not updating after you change the print resolution. 50% and 100% shouldn't be the same ink (100% is higher resolution --> more ink than 50%).

I have the RIP 7 3190.

I tried printing with 100% and 50% the result is the same and the calculator says the same value (ink and cost) it only changes if if goes for 25% and 12,5%.

The latest build is the v3281, but in any case you should be able to see a big difference between the 50% and the 100%. I'd give a call to the local dealer, maybe we are missing something here. But, the first thing is to update the RIP and check again.

maybe due to not enough pressure on the cure. Try also pre pressing fibers down before pretreating
