    Been printing a 4 on carton and the front 2 cartons has dot gain in the first 10mm of the image (cyan screen) making these 2 darker in this area than the back 2.
    Tried different units but had the same issue, any ideals anyone
    Cheers

    Are you certain that the blanket packing hasn't bunched up a bit in the gripper area?

    Hi Alan,

    Is not clear wich problem you have... do you mean every 2 sheets there are dot gain at the begining of print? or all the printing sheets have dot gain at the edge of the begining of print? please be more precise of the fail description in order to recomend a solution...
