Chapter 1 Before Use

Limited media

With the following media, correction from the plotter is difficult.
When using any of the following media, perform test printing to determine whether it can be used or not.
• High stretch fabric (Stretch materials, vertically extendable knit, etc.)
• Materials which become largely extendable when getting wet by printing.
• Materials with large width variations.
• Materials which present partial wrinkles of slacks when being spread on a flat surface or materials which are totally curved.
• Materials with large take-up shift at the ends of media when rolled.
• Roll media with a paper tube whose strength is insufficient and which bends when attached to a feeding unit.
• Even when using media other than described above, be sure to print by optional test data. After checking the printing
result, judge whether it can be used or not.
