Starting Output

WARNING

Never touch the print-head carriage while output is in progress.

The print-head carriage moves at high speed. Coming into contact with the moving carriage may cause injury.

Procedure
  1. Before the start of daily operations, remove just the white ink cartridge, shake it 50 times (about 20 seconds), and then reinsert it.
    So that the ink mixes well, shake the ink cartridge horizontally with a stroke length of around 5 cm (2 in.) from each end of the ink cartridge.


    IMPORTANT

    The ingredients in white ink tend to settle. The precipitation of the ingredients in the ink disables printing in normal color. Allowing the ink to stand can cause the settled material to harden, resulting in malfunction or other problems.

  2. Close the front cover.
  3. Check that [SETUP] is lit.
    If [SETUP] is not lit, the setup is not completed. Press [SETUP/PAUSE].

  4. Check that the screen shown below (the top menu) is displayed.
    If the top menu is not displayed, press [MENU].

  5. Send the output data from the computer.
    For information on how to create the output data, refer to the documentation for the software RIP.
    MEMO

    When you send the output data, "CLEANING..." may be displayed on the screen. These indicate the preparation operations performed before output. Output will begin after the time displayed on the screen elapses.

    IMPORTANT

    Output Is Not Possible in These Situations

    • The machine does not run when a cover (front, left, or right) is open.

    • Data from the computer is not accepted when [SETUP] is dark.

    • Data from the computer is not accepted when you are not at the top menu.

    Points that must be observed

    • Never open a cover (front, left, or right) while output is in progress. Doing so interrupts printing.

    • Do not touch the object being printed on while output is in progress.
