Adjusting the Height

Setting the Print Head Height Manually

Set the print head height manually so that the distance between the print head and the object to be printed on is
optimal. Manual setting is suitable for printing on soft objects and when you want to set a specific distance
between the print head and the surface of the object to be printed on. Set the distance between the print head and
the surface of the object to be printed on within the range from 0.8 to 2.0 mm (0.04 to 0.07 in.). A smaller value
decreases ink mist but increases the risk that the print head will contact the object to be printed on.
Procedure
MEMO
Check that the print-head carriage has returned to the maintenance station. If the machine detects an intrusion
into the movable range of the print-head carriage while the carriage is not in the maintenance station, safety
protection is activated to stop the machine.
