Windows quadtone Rip remapping an Epson 4880

2018-01-02 by petergcane@...

Hi I have a question for the group. Can anyone explain the remap of a clogged nozzle on a Windows machine? I have a curve that I imported as a txt file, which is now a quad and qidf in my quad4880-k7 folder


As my magenta nozzle wont unclog, I'd like to use the LLK (the last nozzle) instead. Do I simply copy the zeros in the K section of the file to the M section to shut it off and what was in the M section to the K?


Thanks for any help!

That is exactly the procedure. Here is a posy I wrote about it a few years ago. It is based on doing it on macOS, but I would get notepad++ to do this on Windows.
