the pattern printed when a print head alignment is done, looks weird. The ink overflows onto one another, specially the black ink. What can be causing this?IMG_0821.JPGIMG_0823.JPGIMG_0824.JPGIMG_0825.JPGIMG_0826.JPG

Which machine are you working with? Could be a defective/leaking black printhead. I would check the interior of the printer to see if there is excessive ink spillage inside the printer. Incompatible media can also cause issues like this.

Incompatibility it's a big possibility. I just started working here and I'm not sure what material we're using, so it's set to generic vinyl. I'm trying to see how I can properly verify the interior for over spillage but can't seem to get to it. Any links to steps on how to properly check the inside for ink?

I will check the printheads
