Lower the pressure roller by turning the
[PRESSURE ROLLER] lever to the "DOWN"
side.
• Rotate the adjusting dial to adjust the pressure of the
pressure roller (refer to the table below).
• Check the air pressure gauge located over the control and
adjust the pressure depending on the media to be used.
• Depending on the kind of the media to be used, pre-
treatment and adhesive status, pressure adjustment is
required in some cases. For reference, for stretch
material, make the pressure lighter, and for non-stretch
material, make the pressure stronger.
• After printing starts, also check the peeling status of the fabric on
the take-up side of this machine to fine adjust the pressure.
