Hue shift on HP Colorfast Adhesive Vinyl media

   

Under high humidity conditions (approx. >65%) the colors tend to fade over time, particularly colors that require Magenta. To solve the problem, try the following:

 

-Reduce the level of humidity (<65%) that the Printer is working in. To find the humidity level, print the Service Configuration Print (Printer Setup Menu / Utilities / Test prints / Service config).
-Laminate the prints.
