6-1 What to Do If

The power supply light is blinking.

Do you turn ON the power as the head posi-
tion is set?
If the power is turned ON as the head position is set,
the power supply light blinks immediately after the
initial operation is completed. If the head is set at an
inappropriate position in relation to the surface height
of the material, the surface of the material may be
scratched and/or the marking pins may be damaged.
To prevent these failures from occurring, the power
supply light blinks.
Loosen the knob counterclockwise once and reset the
setting of the head position. After resetting it, tighten the
knob again. Press the Power/Movement button, and the
power supply light stops blinking and is lights.
If you do not use the head cap, do you adjust
the head position based on the surface height
of the material?
Turn OFF the power. Stop printing if it is underway.
In the case that you perform printing without using the
head cap, if the head position is lower than the surface
height of the material, the tip of the head comes into
contact with the surface of the material, and the power
supply light blinks. Adjust the head position to an ap-
propriate position based on the surface height of the
material and secure the head firmly with the knob.

ing the Adhesive Sheet," P. 38, "Loading Material Using the
Center Vise," p. 51, "Stopping Printing Operations"
Do you lift the head when you turn ON the
power?
Turn OFF the power.
When you lift the head to the topmost, the machine
considers that the surface height of the material is
out of the print conditions, and the power supply light
blinks. Be sure to handle the machine in accordance
with User's Manual.

Is a change in the height of the print surface
too large?
Stop printing.
If a change in the height of the print surface is too large,
the power supply light blinks. Check the conditions of

printable materials and select a material again.
 P. 30, "Preparing Material to Print," p. 51, "Stopping Printing
Operations"
Do you set a material without using the sup-
plied table (or the center vise)?
Turn OFF the power. Stop printing if it is underway.
If you set a material of which surface height is low
without using the supplied table (or the center vise), the
machine considers that the surface height of the mate-
rial is out of the conditions of the printable materials, and
the power supply light blinks. Make sure to set a material
using the supplied table (or the center vise).

ing the Adhesive Sheet," P. 38, "Loading Material Using the
Center Vise," p. 51, "Stopping Printing Operations"
Is the knob loosened?
Stop printing.
If the knob becomes loose in the case that the head
cap is not used, the head position does not match the
surface height of the material, and consequently the
power supply light blinks. When you set the head posi-
tion, make sure to tighten the knob firmly.
 P. 33, "Loading Material Using the Adhesive Sheet," P. 38,
"Loading Material Using the Center Vise," p. 51, "Stopping
Printing Operations"

The machine doesn't run even when printing data is sent.

Is the power switched on?
Make sure the Power/Movement button light is on. If
it is dark, press the Power/Movement button to switch
on the power.
 P.28, "Switching On the Power"

cated below and connect it properly.
