New to using the Reno, just curious about your temperature setting and flash time.
I understand that after a while you can turn the flash time down some cause the pallets heat up.
Thanks!

Right on! Thanks!  I had mine at 900. That's probably why I was flashing longer.
Do you use the same temp/time for whites?

You just print WOW on whites?  I hope to do that more someday soon.  I got QCM WOW inks and still gotta work it out.

Ok my bad Sam.
I just tried a job recently that had 3-colors in the design on a white shirt.  Yellow/light blue/dark blue.
I have the QCM (QMX Pantone Matching) and for some reason some colors are not opaque enough.  I even take the clear base
out of the mixture and still not that opaque.  Super frustrating.  What inks do you use for WOW printing?  Do you use the same on dark shirts with a white underbase?
Thanks for the help
