B. Many techniques may be used to transport rigid media through the NovaJet 880.
Here is one example:
If 'full-bleed' or 'edge-to-edge' printing is required on
a 32" x 40" piece of rigid media, obtain a larger
piece of media (40" x 60") and simply cut out a
rectangular hole to fit the smaller piece. Tape the
two pieces of media together on the reverse side to
secure. Setup a custom page size in the RIP of 60"
x 40". Measure to the cut out and position the
image accordingly in the RIP. Feed the media
through the printer lengthwise, with maximum pinch
roller contact, as shown. This may have to be
tested to ensure the start point is correct. The
transport may be used over and over again.
C. Weight limitations of the rigid media may impact some rigid media printing
applications or techniques. Media deviation and weight both have an impact on whether
or not the printer will pull the media through the printer. While a lighter piece of media
(i.e. ½" Foam Core) that is flat may perform fine, a thinner, but heavier piece of media
(i.e. 3/8" Sintra) may not feed through the printer due to a slight warp in the media.
Please refer to the media deviation and weight standards table below:
10. Application Note: Waterproofing Outdoor Prints
Digital printing has a durability problem outdoors in that it fades, scratches easily, or can
become damaged from the weather. Refer to the KODAK Performance Guarantee
Guidelines and the on-line media Technical Data Sheets for more information:

The Frog Juice has been reported to work on some of the outdoor signs printed with GO
ink in the form of liquid lamination. KODAK does not have a position on this claim.
Remember to always DO A TEST PIECE first.
