The Table will then automatically scan using the media sensor and adjust to the optimum height. The
Platen will be all the way inside the printer ready to print when this operation is complete.
If you want the table to move back out of the machine into the shirt loading and unloading position
again - press the STOP button.
NOTE: When first starting the printer, the Print Start button will be Greyed out and be inoperable until
Height Adjust is performed. This will also happen after any maintenance.
Height Adjust will place the printing surface 2mm from the print heads for optimal quality and minimal
ink mist.
NOTE – if changing the types of material that is being printed on, for example form a sweat shirt to a
•
T-shirt, always perform Height adjust – that way the printing surface will always be the optimal 2mm
from the print heads when printing for best quality. Failure to do this may result in poor print quality
and can lead to printer damage due to ink mist.
Once Height Adjust has been performed it does not need to be performed again if printing on the same
type of material. The media sensor will automatically make minor adjustments each time the platen is
scanned into the printer at the beginning of each print. If there is a wrinkle that is too large - then
printing will be aborted and the following message will appear.
