Setting the Dryer Temperature

Setting the temperature of the dryer appropriately dries the ink.

  • Basically, use the software RIP (color profile) settings for temperature. Even if you use the software RIP settings, if you need to adjust the temperature, such as when there is smudging or poor drying, change the temperature in the machine settings.

  • High temperatures make it easier to dry the ink, but temperatures that are too high can damage the media by deforming or deteriorating it. Select settings appropriate for the media.
Procedure
  1. Set up the media.
  2. Tap the following location on the home screen.

  3. Tap Panel_Icon_Minus or Panel_Icon_Plus to set the Dryer temperature.
    When ink drying is poor, set the temperature to a higher value. Note, however, that a temperature that is too high may degrade the media or cause it to wrinkle.
