Brother MFC-6490CW "plotter" help.
On the advice of several on the old board (now mostly here). I purchased a Brother MFC-6490CW All-in-one “plotter”. It works (mostly) great!! I don’t like the way that my Carlson 2010 w/Intellicad plots to it, but I plot to a PDF in iCad and everything is fine… except one thing. If I print to paper, I’m fine, no problems. But if I try to print to vellum or some other storeable media, the things printed in black are kinda rough or “not crisp”. It’s like the black will find the little tendrils of the media and bleed.
So, if any of you fine folks out there have any suggestions as to what media to purchase, and what (if any) special setting you have on yours, I would be eternally grateful!!
And… I just tried printing to some old mylar I just cut, and everything smeared… any suggestions there??
Thank you all in advance!! I have to head out, so I won’t be here live if you have additional questions… But I will try!!
Carl
