Media Wrinkles Or Warps; The Media Becomes Jammed - Roland SJ-645EX User Manual

Media Wrinkles or Warps

Media Wrinkles When Performing Printing
Was the media allowed to stand while heated?
Depending on the type of media, it may wrinkle when performing printing after it is left on the platen for 30 minutes to
an hour with the print heater temperature at 40˚C. When you are not printing continuously, remove the media or reduce
the preset temperature to 30˚C.
Media Warps Before Performing Printing
Is the temperature of the room too low?
Depending on the type of media, it may tend to warp when there is a large difference between the ambient temperature
and the print heater temperature.
If the left and right edges of the media warp: use media clamps.
If the front edge of the media warps: reduce the print heater temperature or increase the ambient temperature.
It may be possible to prevent media from warping by setting the [VACUUM POWER] menu item. Please refer to "Chap-
ter 6: Menus and Keys."
