Fig. 15 Setting the upper head locking system
The printheads are pushed on via two plungers (1). In the basic setting the plungers are set in the middle of the
printhead retainer. This setting can be used for the most applications.
If the print density decreases in the outer areas when using very large media, the plungers can be displaced :
1. Turn lever (3) clockwise and the lever (4) counterclockwise to lock the printheads.
2. Loosen threaded pins (2) at the plungers (1) with Allen key.
3. Displace plungers symmetrically as necessary maximal to the scale value 70.
4. Tighten the threaded pins (2).
