Section I: Introduction
Thank you for choosing the foil printing system by DMS, Incorporated. The system described in this manual is the result of
thousands of combined man-hours of practical experience, along with extensive research and development in foil printing
applications.
Please study this instruction manual thoroughly before attempting to assemble or operate the system. Personal injury or
damage to system components could result from not following instructions completely.
Over the years, the field of foil printing has grown in diversity and, in many cases, complexity. Due to this fact, we could not
possibly cover every potential application with this manual. The manual has been written in very basic, outline form, with an
attempt to cover as much ground as possible for the foil-printing newcomer. We encourage you to call DMS with any
questions you may have concerning job set-ups, foil selection, job feasibility, etc.
Foil printing newcomers may wish to begin by reviewing APPENDIX B: HOT STAMPING TIPS & TRICKS, for an
overview of foil printing.
Veteran users of DMS foil printing systems should note that several new features have been added to our system control unit
and die shaft assembly, which should be reviewed before set-up.
Thank you for making DMS, Incorporated your source for foil printing equipment!
