Can't get White to Print with AcroRip 8.1

[KenR60]

Hello Everyone, I have a Epson R2400 Printer and using AcroRip 8.1. I have gotten everything working other then the White Ink.

I have set the Ink order as KCMY XXXX and added White ink to the last 2 CISS Bottles ( KCMY . . WW ) but when I print no white is coming through.

Thanks in Advance

White ink for such printers uses a very heavy pigment. If your printer has been idle for three or more days, your white ink will look a little transparent at the bend down to the print head. You will, therefore not be able to get a strong white print until all of the pigment has moved forward. You may also notice that the nozzle check looks good but is not a solid looking white. If you have not used your machine for a few days you will want to get the white ink primed and ready for action.
