How to Set Flatbed Printing Mode

NOTICE:

The factory setting of the height between print media and print head is 3mm.

If the height between print media and print head is more than 3mm, it may cause ink droplet

misting or splashing and lead to a grainy and uneven printing.

When the height between print media and print head is more than 3mm, the reflected light from

UV curing lamp increases and it can cause the misting ink to be cured, increase the ink visocosity

and nozzel clogging, and hence damage print heads.

NOTICE:

It is suggested to use the lamilator with decurling device to keep the sheet flat.
