Film Curl
A film that starts curling after it has been hanging on the lightbox for a while isn't a printer defect to chase — the source attributes it to the dry film's own asymmetric layer structure flexing like a bimetal strip, and gives no lightbox-side fix for it.
Applies to
DryStar 5300 (Type 5365/100)
Personnel
1 technician · Basic — visual check of a hung film at the lightbox; no printer-side corrective action exists for this entry (the defect is inherent to the film's own laminate structure, not the printer).
