Hi,
I am printing with an Epson 9800 on JetPro Matte UV canvas, using matte black. QImage, custom profile made by the printer supplier, printer driver Enhanced Matte Paper (MK) as suggested by the printer supplier and used in profile generation.
A few white (uninked) spots are present on most prints, which on closer examination appear to be where ink has not gone into some dips in the canvas weave. These spots are not visible at a normal viewing distance (2-3 times oblique dimension of the canvas, printing 18*12 and 18*28 inches), but can be seen close up, usually in areas of sky.
My thoughts thus far are that it could be irregularity of the canvas, dust on the canvas, poor profile, or insufficient ink application.
I would value advice, thanks in anticipation.
Tudor.
