Xerox 800 - Blotchy Reds

[Guest]

Hi all.

Printing on 225 gsm gloss coated stock. My reds seem to be printing very blotchy.
So far I have...

Color calibrated
Changed the developer in the magenta (not the yellow yet)
Adjusted the bias pressure
run a dry ink cleaner on all colors

Any ideas?

The dry ink prints 100% of each channel during its test, do those look good when they are done? Try sending prints with 50% solid coverage of each channel and see if those look good.

What is the LAB value of a red that is not printing well for you?

thanks for the quick response. This turned out to be the yellow developer.
