4. Solving Print Quality Problems
4-1-3. Faded Print by Dryness (Changing the Wipe Frequency)
The print condition may be almost faint at both edges if using the GT-3 in a dry environment (humidity less
than 45%). This problem can be resolved by increasing the wipe frequency during printing. However, the time
required to complete printing will increase by the amount of extra time spent on wiping.
Use of a humidifier is recommended if dryness is believed to be the cause of misfiring or print defects. Explain
the following procedure to customers if resolving the problem by increasing the wipe frequency.
1.
Select [ Printer Setting ] > [ Flushing Interval ] in the menu.
11e0035Y
2.
Select one of the four:
・
Every 52 lines
Under very high humid condition, if you reduce the print time.
・
Every 40 lines
Default and standard setting
・
Every 20 lines
Try this setting; wipe double than the standard setting.
・
Every 10 lines
Wipe every 10 lines, most effective but the print time will be the longest.

3.
Press OK button and then the Display shows either [Standby] or [Ready]. The setting is modified. This
setting is effective until you change next time.
<Note>
Decrease the Flushing Interval (=increase the number of Flushing) with [Flushing Interval] menu when the
print quality is not good while printing. On the other hand, increase the Flushing Volume with [Flushing
Volume] menu when the print quality is not good at the beginning of the print.
