Conditions for Loadable Objects (Media)
Shape
Cylindrical shape (an undulating surface that does not affect rotation)
MEMO If the object has undergone embossing, verify that the embossed part does not touch the roller of the rotary axis unit. Object rotation will be impeded if the embossed part is placed on top of the roller of the rotary axis unit, causing the object to move to the left and right and leading to misalignment in the printing position and other such reductions in quality.

Material
Do not print on the following objects.
- Mirrors, stainless steel, and other objects that are likely to reflect UV light
These objects promote the curing of the surface of the print heads and therefore cannot be used.
- Objects that are charged with static electricity
Static electricity can cause the ink to splatter, adversely impacting printing results and the print heads.
- Objects made from soft material
If the object to be printed on is made from soft material, the pressure it applies on the head gap sensor is too weak. This prevents its height from being detected correctly.
IMPORTANT
- This printer cannot print on all materials. When selecting the object, be sure to carry out test prints in advance to make sure that satisfactory print quality can be obtained.
-
Depending on the type of object to print on and the installation method, the height may not be set correctly. The machine may malfunction if printing is performed when an incorrect installation method is used or if printing is performed on an inappropriate material.
