Climate Control On The Océ Tds700 - Oce TDS700 User Manual

Climate control on the Océ TDS700
Introduction
The Océ TDS700 gives the best print results when the printer is located in a room
with air conditioning. This way, the temperature and humidity levels in the room can
be kept at a level that guarantees optimal print results on the Océ TDS700. The
quality of the prints on the Océ TDS700 can be negatively influenced by humidity
in the environment and humidity of the media that the printer uses to print on.
For printers that are located in a room that has no climate control facilities or that is
known to be humid from time to time, the Océ TDS700 can be furnished with an
optional climate control function. The climate control function helps to keep the
media rolls in the drawers dry. The climate control function is active when the printer
is in sleep mode. The printer has a very low energy consumption in the sleep mode.
Attention: If you turn off the printer with the power switch located at the back
of the printer, you also turn off the climate control function. Leave the printer
switched on to be able to use the climate control function.
Climate control function
The climate control function monitors the humidity level with a sensor inside the
printer. When this sensor registers a humidity level in the printer environment that is
higher than 50 %, the climate control function is automatically activated inside the
printer when the printer is in sleep mode. The temperature inside the drawers with
the media rolls increases just enough to prevent the media inside the drawers from
becoming humid. This way you can prevent the adverse effect of moisture in the
media on the print quality.
The climate control function is a fully automatic system that does not need to be
configured. The climate control function can only operate when the power to the
printer remains switched on
Note: A media roll that already contains a lot of moisture cannot be dehydrated by
the climate control function.
Note: Always make sure that you store the media rolls in a dry, cool and dark place,
preferrably in its original wrapping.
