Printing With 1500 Tx Printers; Obtaining Quality Results - Kodak 210433-1 User Manual

Printing with 1500 TX printers

The 1500 TX wide format inkjet printers let you create huge designs. The
length of your printed piece can be the length of a roll of media. Only
Extreme Color Printing combines the technical sophistication of the
ENCAD printers with the unique qualities of ENCAD TX proprietary inks
and media, which includes a variety of popular fabrics, photogloss, coated
canvas, and matte paper.
These printers feature a continuous-feeding ink system which uses 500ml
reservoirs for each color, so you never have to worry about running out of
ink halfway through a big print job. Before starting a print job, just look at
the transparent plastic reservoirs to check the ink supply. When the ink
supply is low, just open the cap and refill.
The printers accept raster-oriented data in the form of HP RTL format.
In this mode, printing begins immediately after the first complete line of
HP RTL data is received. Depending on the software used, millions of
colors are possible, yielding superb results for continuous-tone images.
Your printer comes with TX Print, a software RIP designed specifically
for textile printing applications. It includes a visual interface, and features
which include tiling, rotating, and repeating of images.
