1. Print Modes Print Modes in T RIP tell the inkjet printer how much ink to lay down the print resolution the speed unidirectional or bidirectional and how to print from multiple color slots Don t be confused by the wide variety of Print Modes You will find that once you determine the correct Print Mode for your brand of film and printer you typically never change to another setting The Print Mode details are 1 The higher the resolution the sharper the print BUT for most work 1440x720 is perfect 2 There are three ink levels SD Single Density Try this first Poor quality film may require more ink Waterproof film takes less ink This is the best setting DD Double Density Use this on poorly coated film TD Triple Density Y ou will hopefully never need this setting 3 HS High Speed This setting tells the printer to print in bidirectional mode both directions On some printers this may cause banding and blurred edges if the heads are not perfectly aligned Set the default Print Mode you like by going to the Queue pull down menu and then Properties Under the General section you will see a Print Mode window For the best results and as a Starting point select 1440x720dpi SD Remember these Print Mode names and options will vary depending on your printer model A Settings General General Name Epson Photo Stylus 1400TRIP Hat Folders v Location C TRIP Queues Epson Photo Stylus 1400TRIP
2. Another option is to put black ink in the black head and then fill the other cartridges or bulk ink system with inkjet head cleaning fluid Head cleaning fluid is cheaper than ink so you don t lose as much money during the head cleaning cycle And a lot of users simply put distilled water in the non black slots since inkjet ink Is comprised of distilled water A popular option that has certain drawbacks is to put black ink in all the heads and have the RIP print black from all heads at the same time Obviously if there were no software settings to control the amount of ink coming from each head you would have ink all over the place T RIP has settings where you can tell the printer to print a small amount from each head While this option sounds great the downside Is that there may be slight overspray and misalignment when printing the same image from a number of heads And each printer model reacts different to this Yes there may be an increase in speed but there also can be a decrease in quality The default setting for T RIP is to print black ONLY from the black slot You can change this by going to the Queue pull down menu and then Properties Select Printer Options When options on the right are in gray it means those are the default settings Buy checking the top box Change default printer options and the bottom box Enable override advanced options you can putin your own settings 33 T RIP Configuration Settings Printer O
