1
What is the outdoor durability of SS21 silver and ES3 silver
SS21:1 year ES3:Six months with laminate
However, if the outdoor durability of the lamination is poor, the
outdoor durability of SS21/ES3 becomes poor accordingly.
2
How is the media compatibility of SS21 silver?
Polymeric-calendered PVC is recommended. SS21 silver has poor
media compatibility on monomeric-calendered PVC. Monomeric
plasticizer has a relatively low tolerance for solvent and heat,
which leads to the fast absorption of ink. Since SS21's silver
requires time for its color material to align flat, the media
compatibility with fast ink absorbing monomeric-calendered PVC
is poor.
3
Can SS21 silver be used for heat transfer media?
It is not recommended as scratch resistance is weaker.
4
What is the shelf life of SS21 silver?
1 year from its production.
5
Can a roll of media with more than 250mm outer diameter
be used if its weight is less than 40kg?
No, it cannot, because the media interferes with the bar under
the media.
6
Can the width of transparent media be detected
automatically?
Yes, it can.
However, when using black media, there may be occasions that
media width cannot be detected automatically because the color
of heater is also black.
7
When is the ink circulation of SS21 silver performed?
Once every 4 hours, for 2 minutes.
8
Is crop mark used for pull-back printing?
No. After printing silver layer, the media is automatically pulled
back to the origin, then it prints color layer.
9
Are the cutting accuracy and the throughput of CJV150 and
CJV300 equivalent?
Yes, they are.
