Lamination Time: In order to allow you to be as productive as possible, the NovaJet 800/KODAK
4800 series printers feature the Dynamic Thermal Drying system (DTD). When the Dryer setting is
set to 'AUTO' (default) the printer monitors temperature and humidity and constantly adjusts the
DTD operating temperature to provide consistent printer performance. In environments that are
from 20-24° C (64-75°F) with 20% to 70% RH, images with up to 200% ink lay down may be
laminated after 10 minutes from completion of the print.
At high ink
certain types of media it is suggested not to the use the 'AUTO' Dryer Setting as image
deformation issues (i.e. vertical banding) may be encountered due to excessive heat
temperature. If a problem is encountered place the Dryer setting to 'ON' and choose a
specific 'Heat Setting' value (i.e. change from 100% to 60%); run a test print to
determine the optimum drying
temperature for your specific media at
given saturation level. Please refer to
the on-line Media Technical Data sheets
for specific printing/lamination tips and
the Media Compatibility Chart on the
last page of this document. General
Dryer Heat Setting suggestions for
