NovaJet 880 Rigid/Textile Media Print Operations
This document addresses many of the questions and concerns of printing on rigid and
other thick media with the NovaJet 880 printer. Rigid, textile and roll media may pass
through the printer up to ½" (12.7 mm) thick. Please refer to the Quick Start Guide (hard
copy) and Online Reference Guide (on User-CD) for specific operational questions,
these documents are provided with the printer. The following general information notes
are listed from the most important to least important with respect to overall printer
performance:
1. Equipment Note: Transfer of Rigid Media
1. Three or four ball bearing stands are suggested for
use with the NJ880, but are not provided. The ball
bearing stands from McMaster-Carr have been tested as
being one of the best for the price; part number 5904k3,
$42.99 each. Other similar stands are available, but have
not functioned as well during testing. Orient two stands in
front and two stands at the rear of printer. Ensure the
media path into the printer is level. It has been noted that
slight media deviations (warped or curved media) can be
compensated for using the smaller stands better than the
larger stand systems. Severe media deviations cannot be
controlled leading to possible print head strike or feeding
problems through the NovaJet 880. Ensure Print Gap is
set correctly (see below).
