Roland - Nozzle Mask Function for SG2 and VG2


To address dot drop-out or displacement issues even after thorough cleaning, consider employing a technique called "nozzle masking." This involves restricting the use of specific print heads, which causes discharge problems and mitigates the impact of these issues. While this method may reduce printing speed, it offers a way to improve print quality. Begin by printing a test pattern, analyze the results to identify problematic nozzle groups, and then utilize VersaWorks to designate which nozzle group to use for printing.
