4.3.2.9 Weaving Menu
Without weaving ON, an image is completed (formed) by printing a series of
complementary rectangular shaped stripes (bands, swaths, passes). Inherent to
classic inkjet printing is that ink drying effects, stepping mismatch, miss firing
nozzles show up in the printed image via ink bleeding and various types of
banding. By switching ON one of the weave patterns you will give the traditional
rectangular print swaths a wave-shaped look that will save you time and boost
your output quality. Difficult images will print smoother, banding will be
suppressed (neutralized) and you will have to spend less time fine-tuning your
printer to create great looking output.
Moreover, when using wave-tuned profiles, you will be able to boost your printer’s
colour gamut as the i² (intelligent interweaving) technology allows depositing
more ink, helping you to achieve higher colour densities.
