Purpose
The vacuum system holds the media in place on the printer table. The zones are arranged
to accommodate common media dimensions. If a zone is activated, you must mask off
any part of it that is not covered by the media.
Note:
An active zone that is properly sealed will read 20" Hg or higher on the vacuum gauge.
If the vacuum gauge for an active zone reads below 10"Hg (34 kPa) and you have ensured
that the area is properly masked and taped off, you may have a leak in the vacuum system.
However, keep in mind that lower vacuum levels will be seen when the media is porous.
Place a service call only after you determine that the zone is correctly masked and the
gauge reads consistently low.
How to Use the Zones
Place media on the table.
1.
Note:
To place media at the Print Origin for the B Zone requires an offset at 1830mm (this
must be set either in the ONYX software or the Print Job screen and can be entered in
millimeters, even when the interface is set to Imperial units).
Mask off any areas of the active vacuum zone(s) that will not be occupied by the media.
2.
Note:
The media can occupy more than one zone, but if a zone will be active, all of the area
not covered by the media must be masked so that all vacuum holes are covered.
If the Center Zone is not occupied by media it can be turned Off with the manual valve
located at the Zone 1 end of the printer.
Activate the zones you wish to use either with the icon on the command bar of the Print
3.
Job module or with the matched foot switch (A or B) on the floor.
Start the print job either with the Start icon on the command bar or with the Print Start
4.
button located near the vacuum gauges.
