T shirt x-fer and the C253

[emujo]

Have a customer that is using the 253 for limilted runs onto t-shirt transfer material. Paper is per KM Specs, new xfer belt and 2nd transfer roller. 140K on MFP latest firmware. Using Corel draw to build the job. If we send the job to 11x17 plain paper, image is perfect. The same job sent to the x-fer paper the deep greens are aqua and the deep reds are shifted to pink. No fiery installed so don't have many color adjust options. Any body know any settings that might compensate for the paper? I have tried running the calibration on the x-fer paper, but the scan fails. This is the PS driver, tested the PCL but cq is the same. Any thoughts?

Check for thick setting. You are not getting sufficient yellow transfer....

(ie) yellow is layered on the belt first, then magenta then cyan and then black. At second transfer, the toner is pulled to the paper in the reverse order. If insufficient transfer is taking place, colours are not fully pulled to the paper and you have colour imbalance.

Usually, changing from plain to thick (x) will correct this. Also, check tech rep second transfer bias settings if that doesn't resolve the problem.
