NOTICE
Actions like those described below can damage the printing heads and should never be attempted.
- Do not perform printing on media with grid traces.
- Do not perform printing on areas that have been cut (such as areas used for cutting tests).
- Do not use media that is dusty or damaged.
- Do not anything other than genuine Roland DG Corp. media or media recommended by
Roland DG Corp.
Grime on the printed surface of the media may result in soiling ink transfer. If there is grime or oil from the hands or
dust on the media, then before you perform printing, wipe the media clean using a cloth moistened with alcohol.
Do not use media that has been printed or cut within 20 mm (13/16 in.) of the start of the media. Doing so may result
in failure to detect the correct media width, which may adversely affect printing or cutting.
Do not place any objects to the rear of the media base.
Correct media feed may be impaired, adversely effecting printing or cutting.
When you are using new media, then before actual use, carry out a printing test to verify the line pitch of the printed
area (white streaks or overlap). For information about printing tests, see "4.1 Printing Tests and Cutting Tests." For
information about adjusting the line pitch, see "5.2 Driver Settings."
