Place the media on the table in the orientation that matches the job to printed and register the
media to the print origin. In the next section there are more details on how to perform the
following actions.
Select Active Vacuum Zones
Select the required vacuum zones to hold the media to the table using the table vacuum. The
three vacuum zone control handles control which of the three zones on the printer table will have
vacuum applied when the table vacuum pump is turned on. The vacuum zones are opened or
closed using a quarter turn handle. Refer to the next section for details on the dimensions and
placement of the vacuum zones.
Turn On Table Vacuum
Click on the Vacuum button in the top right corner of the printer software display to activate the
table vacuum. Also a vacuum foot pedal switch is provided to turn the table vacuum on and off.
Mask Active Vacuum Holes Not Covered With Media
To hold the media to the table it is important to completely cover active vacuum holes with a
masking material. The masking material should not be thicker than the media to be printed on. If
a full bleed image is to be printed, the masking material should be the same thickness as the
media to be printed on to prevent overspray from accumulating on the print head nozzle plates.
NOTE
When the vacuum is switched off, wait a few seconds before you switch it on again.
Clean Media, If Required
If the media is dusty or dirty, clean it with an appropriate cleaner. If using a liquid like isopropyl
alcohol, allow sufficient time to dry prior to imaging.
Start Print
The Print button is located at the corner of the table where media is loaded. Press the Print button
to start the print job. If the job was selected, the media thickness confirmed and the vacuum is
turned on, printing will start after the ink and lamps reach operating temperature.
