Xtool B0CPPQQ53G Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. The pattern I printed was not complete. Why?
(1) The screen was not properly prepared.
The pattern may not be fully engraved on the screen due to processing parameter settings. Please set the processing
parameters as recommended. For images, do not set the bitmap mode to Grayscale.
(2) Some ink became dry on the screen and blocked the imprints of the pattern.
Ink may become dry on the screen if there are long time intervals in batch printing, or if the screen isn't cleaned after use.
To prevent this, avoid long printing time intervals during batch printing and always clean the screen before storing it.
(3) The ink was not evenly squeezed.
During screen printing, you need to use the squeegee to squeeze the ink through the screen mesh. If you do not squeeze
the ink evenly, some imprints may look lighter or even be missed.
(4) Ink particles were large.
Large ink particles cannot be squeezed through the screen mesh. Select ink with smaller particles. You are advised to
purchase ink at xtool.com, as it has been tested and is compatible with xTool Screen Printer.
(5) You squeezed the ink too slowly or fast.
Squeezing the ink through the screen mesh too slowly or fast may affect the transfer of the pattern, causing some parts to
be too heavy, light, or even missed.
(6) The ink didn't adhere to the material being printed.
The ink may lack adhesion to some materials due to their texture, resulting in an incomplete pattern. When this happens,
replace the ink or material.
2. The ink spread out at the edges of the pattern printed. Why?
This issue generally arises during batch printing.
(1) Some ink adhered to the back of the screen.
During batch printing, some ink may adhere to the back of the screen in the last printing, causing the ink to spread out in
the next printing. You can use a wet cloth to remove the ink from the back of the screen before the next printing.
(2) The ink had high fluidity.
If the ink has high fluidity, it may spread unexpectedly. You are advised to purchase ink at xtool.com, as it has moderate
fluidity and works well with xTool Screen Printer.
