Roland VersaUV LEF2 - Printer settings

Printer tab

• Rewind after print: rewinds the media to its initial position after printing.

• Check media width: a warning is shown if the media width is smaller than the printed document.

• Show job name on printer panel: if enabled, it displays the job name on the printer panel screen. When disabled, the printer panel shows the current print mode.

• Don't check printer inks: doesn't display a warning if the printer inks do not match the selected print mode. When disabled, a warning is shown when a required ink is missing in the printer.

Media tab

• Information: at the top of the window, you are able to see information about your media. There you have access to two actions:
  • Save: when you click on this button, the current media settings are saved to the selected media profile (printer, media, resolution, mode) so there will be applied for any new job using the same print configuration. If you don't save, the changes you made are only applied to the current job.
  • Reload: will revert back to default as set during profiling or the last saved changes.
• Horizontal compensation (%): we recommend not to modify this. Any deviation is likely to be mechanical on the printer's side.
• Vertical compensation (%): this can be useful if you detect an increase or decrease in the length due to heating or media tension which is common when printing on vinyl or textiles for example. To calculate the compensation, click Compute and follow the software’s instructions.

• Overprint: this performs additional passes to increase ink density. The user can define the amount of overprint layers with a factor between 1 and 9.

• Cleaning while printing: performing cleaning during printing, indicate the degree of cleaning to perform. It can remove potential clogging or condensation on the head during print.
• Cleaning interval (s): time interval of Cleaning while printing (from 0 to 60000 seconds).

Media: Override tab

• Scan Speed: scan speed can only be reduced by specifying the amount in % (in steps of 10%). The value 100% corresponds to the predefined value of selected print mode.
• Feed Speed: 10%-100% by 10% steps. Allows to reduce the feed speed relatively to the print mode.

• Passmask pattern: This defines the RIPC (Roland Intelligent Pass Control) pass mask pattern. If the default value is not satisfactory, the correct value should be determined by comparing prints using different values. The value Off disables the RIPC feature.

• Passmask overlap: this parameter overrides RIPC (Roland Intelligent Pass Control) pass overlap. Enable this override only if you know what you are doing. It affects fundamental print mode definition.

• Vardot L/M factor: factor between Large and Medium dots.
• Vardot L/S factor: factor between Large and Small dots.
• Vardot max S: maximum percentage of Small dots.
• Vardot max M: maximum percentage of Medium dots.
• Fixdot level: choice of the fixdot level between Small, Medium or Large.

  • Ready

All data is coming from the printer, if it is not available, nothing can be displayed.

• Inks: information about the ink configuration and the inks levels in %.

• Media: information about the media loaded on the printer.
