Perforated Underlay Sheet

5.1.4
When printing on thin, flexible, or porous media, the counter-bore holes in the vacuum
table of the T220 can cause print artifacts. Adding a perforated polypropylene sheet
between the media and the table reduces this problem.
Tips for Using the Underlay Sheet:
• Use scrap pieces of media to cover any exposed area of the underlay sheet
that the carriage will travel over. This prevents the underlay sheet from
lifting off the table and colliding with the carriage.
• The underlay sheet should be placed with the rough side facing down so
that the media is placed on the smooth side.
• It may be necessary to bleed the vacuum by opening, or partially opening
an additional vacuum zone to reduce dimple artifacts.
• The underlay sheet should not be rolled up when stored. It should lie flat
on the table or a similar surface when not in use.
A 4 x 8 foot underlay sheet that covers part of the entire printing area is available at no
cost to T220 owners.
Order Part #3010101746 - Perf PP 3/32DIA, 1/16th 4ft x 8ft.
Be sure to place a shim of equivalent thickness to the underlay sheet as well
Note:
as one for the media into the pre-fire stripe catcher when adjusting the
thickness of the media.
