Function
The Arizona 250 GT has an AC power switch that turns the
printer On and Off. The switch also serves as a lock-out
device. It also has an AC power connector. All of these
power-related items are located on the end of the electronics
enclosure.
The operator control station consists of a podium stand, an
LCD display monitor, a mouse, and an emergency stop
button. The station allows the operator to control the
printer's onboard computer system by way of the Operator
Interface software displayed on the LCD monitor. Print jobs
are sent to the printer's hard drive from the host computer
over an Ethernet network.
The three vacuum zone control handles determine which of
the three print zones on the printer table will have vacuum
applied when the vacuum pump is switched on. The
vacuum zones are opened or closed by the handles.
A vacuum foot pedal switch is provided to facilitate the
process of securing the media on the vacuum table. The foot
pedal toggles the table vacuum on/off. The vacuum must be
turned on prior to starting a print.
A bleed valve can be adjusted to reduce or increase the
amount of vacuum suction on the media. Less vacuum
reduces artifacts caused by suction when imaging on
flexible media.
The print button is located at the corner where media is
loaded on the table. After positioning the media and
activating the vacuum, press the button to start the print.
The green colored beacon light is mounted on the top
surface of the carriage. The purpose of the light is to
indicate basic machine status to the operator. See the table
after this section for the significance of the different states
of the light.
