Epson 4880 shifting and reprinting further down (images attached)

(1/2) > >>

Gilligan:
Anyone why the printer keeps doing this?  I've cleaned the encoder strip.

RIP is Filmaker 4+

One is turned about 45* on top of the other... it skips downwards each time in case that's confusing.

ebscreen:
When I've seen stuff like that from a printer it's usually some kind of communications error.
Start with the easy (cable/different USB port) and proceed to software/driver re-installation.

Gilligan:
Will do... we rebooted but I didn't think about changing USB cables.

blue moon:
from what I remember, so please double check. . . I think I've seen that happen when the printer cleans the head during the printing. I think there is an option to disable that either in your RIP, printer driver or the printer itself. It's worth a check. Possibly put a camera on the printer and see what's going on.
