XcolorRIP channel change features - no need change head even head is clogging.
New Xcolor RIP features about channel change.
for Epson 7900/9900 and more. / all 8color printer can change 6 or 4 color when 1 or 2 nozzle raws are clogging. (Epson R1800 / 3800 / 4800,4880 / 7800,7880 / 9800, 9880 / 7890,9890 ) .
We are focused on Epson’s new printers, our customer asked us that they have Epson 7900 printers 1 or 2 nozzles clogged so can not use with Epson printer driver, but changing head need much money (at least 2,000 USD .. ) so they asked that even though 1 or 2 nozzles clogged but with our XcolorRIP there may be some way to use this printer .
So I try make new channel changing features .
If K nozzle is clogged and can not use, then 7900 have 10 nozzle row, K C M Y Lc Lm Lk LLk Or Gr, so then rearrange ink like next table.
Original K C M Y Lc Lm Lk LLk Or Gr
Changed X C M Y C M K Y K X
And you must change channel options as same. – check the dialog options.
Then you can use 8 nozzle rows and we recommend using 4color CMYK double mode. Almost same quality as Epson 7700 !
So then 7900 9900 printer that 1 or 2 nozzle head clogging and you can not use as original ink and printer driver then use XColor rip and change ink then CMYK double dyesublimation printer recreation !
Also you can use 9800/9880/7800/7880/4800/4880 9890/7890 also same way. But these printers just have 8 nozzles so 1 or 2 nozzles clogging then you can change 4 color or 6 color setting then may be speed goes slower but still you can use your printer !
All these matters because Epson changed head price , now it’s so high price to change head, so many customers give up changing head and the printer can not use, but with XColor rip !
still clogged head, anyway you can use it ! very cost saving way !
