Hello everyone,

My boss recently bought Durst RCP 20 for RA-4 printing. I'm not sure if it's modded or not, but with chemistry at 30*C I get decent results. There's one problem though - sometimes the paper gets stuck on the stop bath part like so:

It doesn't happen every time but still.. What can I do to remedy that?
Format that I'm printing on is 14x20,5cm.

Thanks in advance,
Stan

I have one of these too so curious what other say. If you're positive the paper path is perfect, perhaps the way you feed the paper? Do you cut it yourself or buy it pre-cut?

Sorry for the late reply. I actually managed to get over that by switching from DS to SS on the plastic thingies at the end of every part (developer, stop and blix). Now though paper sometimes comes out folded. But not always.

As for your questions - how do I check if paper path is perfect? It's the first time I'm working with roller transport machine. I cut the paper myself.
