Loading the Object in the Printing Position

This section explains how to lay the printable media on the table, and then print the outline of the object. Place the object on top of the printed outline so that the printed outline is hidden. This method is suitable if you are not making enough objects to require the need for making jigs.

However, note that positioning accuracy will be limited to visual inspection levels.

  • Set the media surface height as the print surface height.
  • Print the print data—including the external shape of the object to be printed on—onto the media.

  • Place the object directly on top of the media on which this external shape was printed.

    Secure the object in place using a substance such as commercially available adhesive tape.

  • Set the height of the object to be printed on as the print surface height.
  • Print the print data—excluding the external shape of the object to be printed on—onto the object.

  • Attach paper or some other wide, flat, printable media to the table.

    Turn on [TS : VACUUM] to ensure the media does not come loose when doing the work.

    Media refers to the thin sheet used to make it easier to position the object.
