Points in head height adjustment
• When the head height is so adjusted that the tip of the head height adjust-
ment rod just makes contact with the surface of the fabric, the distance be-
tween the head and the printing surface of the fabric becomes optimum.
• As long as the head height is so adjusted that the tip of the head height
adjustment rod just makes contact with the surface of the fabric, the distance
between the head and the printing surface of the fabric remains unchanged
even when the head is raised.
• To avoid fluffing of the fabric surface, warp of the fabric edge, or waving of
the fabric during printing, the distance between the head and the printing
surface of the fabric can be increased.
• When the distance between the head and the printing surface of the fabric is
increased, the print quality deteriorates.
