When The Media Width Exceeds 540 Mm; Changing The Hold-Down Force; Switching Between The Strong And Weak Settings - GRAPHTEC FC7000 Series User Manual

When the Media Width Exceeds 540 mm

Position the three right-hand pinch rollers when the plotter is viewed from the front
so that the left and right pinch rollers are at the edges and the middle pinch roller
in the center of the media. Make sure that all the pinch rollers are positioned over
grit rollers. Move any pinch rollers that are not used to the standby position.
If you wish to use all four of the FC7000-160 pinch rollers, position the two outer-
most pinch rollers at the edges of the media and the other two pinch rollers in
between, making sure that the pinch rollers are all spaced equally, and that each
pinch roller is positioned over a grit roller.
CAUTION: The media must always be positioned over the media sensor.

Changing the Hold-down Force

The pinch roller hold-down force must be set to suit the width and type of the
loaded media
S
Use the hold-down force switching lever located at the back of each pinch roller to
change the hold-down force. Raise the lever to decrease the hold-down force
(Weak), and lower the lever the increase the hold-down force (Strong).
