UV printing defect checklist for production diagnosis. A practical checklist for separating UV print defects by machine state, ink, curing, material behavior, RIP settings, ICC/profile logic and operator routine.

One symptom can hide several causes. Classify the defect before changing settings, profiles or material modes. Random corrections often hide the cause and make repeatability worse.
