Set this to a temperature that is the same as or lower than the temperature of
the print heater. You use the preheater mainly to heat media gradually. This is
because media becomes more likely to shrink or wrinkle if heated suddenly.
You use this mainly to improve ink adhesion and inhibit smudging. If the ink forms
lumps or smudges, raise the temperature. Note, however, that a temperature
that is too high may degrade the media or cause it to wrinkle.
When ink drying is poor, raise the temperature. Note, however, that a temperature
that is too high may degrade the media or cause it to wrinkle.
The optimal temperature for the media heating system varies according to such
factors as the type of media and differences in the print mode. If smudging or
poor drying occur even after raising the temperature, try using a print mode of
software RIP offering higher image quality. Conversely, when you want to use
a faster print mode, raise the temperature.
When you change the amount of ink using the settings for your software RIP,
adjusting this may yield better results. If problems such as smudging persist
even after raising the temperature, try reducing the amount of ink.
When recommended settings for temperature, print mode, and other values are
given as the use condition of your media, use the suggested settings.
