Unpacking Your Printer - ENCAD 215360-01 Quick Start Manual

NovaJet Quick Start
Congratulations on your purchase of a NovaJet wide format color printer. This
guide gives you details on the following:
• unpacking and assembling the printer
• loading media
• filling ink reservoirs
• installing ink cartridges
• installing the media cutter
• priming ink system
• cartridge alignment
If your printer is a NovaJet 880, it has an adjustable platen which provides the
capability of printing on almost any coated rigid media up to .5 inches thick.
The key to printing rigid media is the ability to get it flat enough for high-quality
inkjet printing. The kit includes special flattening rollers that attach to the back of
the printer. These rollers give you an insertion point for the rigid media and also
help to flatten the rigid media to provide a good surface for inkjet printing.
When printing rigid media in the standard NovaJet 880 configuration, the media
exits the printer over the top of the dyer. To give rigid media the drying capabili-
ties of the 800 series dryer, special hardware is included. This hardware allows
the dryer to be rotated upward to point down on the rigid media as it exits the
printer. This feature provides excellent dry time to lamination for rigid media.
Make sure you review this entire guide before starting the installation process.

Unpacking your printer

Your printer is shipped in three separate boxes. If your printer is a NovaJet 880,
you may have fourth box containing the Rigid Media Kit. The Rigid Media Kit
can be shipped as a separate box four or included in the same box as the printer
head. The printer and stand boxes are quite large and heavy. We recommend
you have two people (or a forklift) move these boxes. Before assembly, you may
want to measure halls and elevators to determine whether the unit should be
assembled in the area where it will be used.
