  • View the printed test pattern, and then determine the correction value.
    The current correction value () is that of the figure indicated by "." Select the value to make the gap () and overlap () between the upper/lower squares smallest. In the case of the following figure, select "−0.40." (). When you cannot choose between two sequential numbers, specify a value that is between them.


  • View the printed test pattern, and then determine the correction value.
    Select the value that gives the least misalignment between the two lines. In the case of the following figure, select "-3." When you cannot choose between two sequential numbers, select a value that is between them (you can set correction values in units of "0.5").


  • Peel off the two cut shapes (a circle and a square).


  • Load the media.
    Setup of New Media
  • Check whether there is dot drop-out or dot displacement in the test pattern.

    		Set the force (pressure) of the blade. 50 gf


    		Set the speed of cutting. 30 cm/s


    Set the blade offset. Enter the listed offset value for the blade.

    The offset value for the included blade is 0.250 mm (9.8 mil).

    		 0.250 mm (0.010 in.)


    		Set the blade's up speed during cutting (the speed at which the blade travels when it moves to the next cutting line after cutting one cutting line). If the media comes loose during no-load feed and the blade damages the surface of the media, reduce the speed. 30 cm/s
  • Press AP-640_Panel_Icon_UP, AP-640_Panel_Icon_DOWN, AP-640_Panel_Icon_LEFT or AP-640_Panel_Icon_RIGHT to move the center of the blade over the crop marks.

  • Select Nozzle Drop-out Test and tap Printing Test.
    A test pattern is printed.
  • Check for the group with dot drop-out or dot displacement by viewing the results of the printing test.
    The space from "A" to "B" is group A. The space from "B" to the right side is group B.


    MEMO

    If the printing-test results are difficult to interpret

  • Detach the blade holder.


  • Check the correction values from the Printing Test 2 condition.

    The point where the cutting line (A) intersects the correction-value scale (B) is the correction value. In the following figure, the correction value is "−0.3."

    Check the media feed direction (the feed direction) and the direction of print head movement (the scan direction).



  • Set the correction values in the feed direction of the media (the feed direction) and the direction of print head movement (the scan direction).
    1. Tap AP-640_Panel_Icon_MINUS or AP-640_Panel_Icon_PLUS next to Correction Value (Feed) to set the correction value in the feed direction of the media (the feed direction).
    2. Tap AP-640_Panel_Icon_MINUS or AP-640_Panel_Icon_PLUS next to Correction Value (Scan) to set the correction value in the direction of print head movement (the scan direction).
  • During output, tap Pause.
    This pauses the printing operation.
  • Once the position has been decided, tap Set Base Point Here to confirm it.
    The base point position is updated, and you are returned to the home screen.

    IMPORTANT Be sure to use one of the included cleaning sticks.


  • When the Discard the discharged fluid. screen appears, remove the drain bottle and discard the discharged fluid.

    VG3-DrainBottle

    1. Remove the drain bottle and discard the discharged fluid.
    2. Quickly attach the emptied drain bottle to the machine once more.
    IMPORTANT When you remove the drain bottle, a few drops of discharged fluid may come out of the machine. Exercise caution to prevent this fluid from soiling your hands or the floor.
    CAUTION

    Before you detach the drain bottle, be sure to wait for the screen to display Discard the discharged fluid in the bottle.. After discarding the discharged fluid, promptly attach the drain bottle to the machine.

    Failing to follow this procedure may cause discharged fluid to flow out of the tube and spill, soiling your hands or the floor.

    WARNING

    Never place discharged fluid or ink near an open flame.

    Doing so may cause a fire.

    CAUTION

    To store discharged fluid temporarily, place it in the included drain bottle or in a durable sealed container such as a metal can or polyethylene tank, and cap the container tightly.

    Any spillage or vapor leakage may cause fire, odor, or physical distress.

    IMPORTANT

    Do not store discharged fluid in a location where it is exposed to direct sunlight.

    When temporarily storing discharged fluid in the included drain bottle, do not store it in a location that is exposed to direct sunlight. The discharged fluid may harden, making the drain bottle unusable. The drain bottle may also deteriorate, leading to discharged fluid leaks.

    IMPORTANT

    Dispose of discharged fluid properly, in accordance with the laws in effect in your locale.

    Discharged fluid is flammable and contains toxic ingredients. Never attempt to incinerate discharged fluid or discard it with ordinary trash. Also, do not dispose of it in sewer systems, rivers, or streams. Doing so may have an adverse impact on the environment.
