How to fix color mixing issues on Formax ColorMax 7?
To address color mixing issues with your Formax Printer, try the following: * Remove any media from under the printhead. * Wipe the printhead with a lint-free cloth dampened with distilled water. * Perform a “Printhead Cartridge Conditioning” routine. * Allow the printer to sit powered on for 2-3 hours to clean the wiper roller. * Ensure the printer is on a sturdy, level surface.
What to do if Formax ColorMax 7 is smudging?
If you're experiencing smudging with your Formax Printer, make sure the “Head Media Guide” is correctly installed and clean. Also, try adjusting the “PPS Spacers” by either removing or inserting them. Ensure your media is as flat as possible with tight folds. If possible, rotate the media and image by 90, 270, or 180 degrees. Reduce the ink output by setting the print quality to “Normal” and decrease the print speed to allow more drying time. Consider using media specifically designed for inkjet printers.
