Title: Epson 9900 is it possible to disable a color channel?
Post by: Skygalleries on October 09, 2024, 01:00:18 AM
Greetings!

I watched several videos. I was asking at the Luminous light Forum, that I have a Epson 9900. Having trouble with my Light Magenta. I've done all the cleanings. The nozzle pattern moves around a bit. Someone suggested that I could with the proper software, either disable the light Magenta channel, or reduce it. Now I was suggested QImage. I even asked AI and it was sure I could go into settings and color Management and do this.  But you know AI.

Does anyone know if this is possible, or can suggest an alternative? I have a great client and need to print these images for her. And there is a Major order for me shortly. I'd hate to lose her business.

Thanks!

Max

I'm not aware of any way to do that.  Even if you could tweak the color to get rid of any cast, the driver is going to expect that channel to be available and it will try to use it regardless so you're still going to see banding.  I think your only option is to try to clear that clog/problem.  Google things to try like window cleaner with amonia on a paper towel, multiple cleanings in a row, etc.
