I have an Epson ET-2810 printer. I am printing to 125 x 250 card stock (250gsm). The finished print is folded to produce a 125 x 125 greeting card.
I have the set up and manually calibrted my design in Affinity to produce an image that has a 5mm margin with the reult of a 115 x 115 image centered on the front page of the folded card.
I have designed a 5mm margin to allow for a mm either way tlerance on the leading edge and still produce an acceptable, if somewhat asymetric result. Unfortunately I can't get the printer to produce anything that is even close to consistent results, my last 2 attempts have missed the margin altogether and clipped int the first couple off mm of the image, meaning the print is at least 7mm from wher it should be.
Are there any measures I could take to get more consistency into where the print starts in relation to the leading edge of the card? I only print one card at a time and I have 'rotate 180°' checked.
Any advice appreciated, I am wasting too much ink and card stock on what should be an easily achievable taksk
