Wondering if anyone has an explanation for this--
--the line to the right of "IN" isn't supposed to be there. It's a ghost...

And it does show up on the plate:

It washes off easy enough, but no big deal, but on acrylic, it probably WOULD be a big deal...
I shot a video, from start to finish--

Some notes:
It only does it on the 3rd "IN", but not the first one...?
I swapped the cyan and blue colors to see if it was anything to do with colors. No change
I rotated the lens housing to see if that would stop a reflection or something. No change.
After that I moved the entire job 2" to the right on the table. That put the first "IN" .45" farther to the right than the original position of the second "IN". Still no change.
So I moved the entire job 2" UP on the table. Guess what? ;)
As for tickle, for one my tickle is turned off. And, as you can see in the video, the lens only sweeps the I-N, the center of the lens doesn't seem to reach the line, yet it still fires a line there...?
I'm always telling people we have a ghost here.... ;)
