  3. Print onto black card

    Hi all I am trying to print black onto black 350gsm card on Xerox DC242, this will then run through a laminator with white laser foil.

  10. Xerox Docucolor 242 quality issue

    Great thank you, i found it tricky to find exactly where the ROS windows are but gave a clean in that area as per your video.
