Adjusting the head height
• The head can be adjusted in height in two different stages, upper and lower, according to thick
ness of a medium used for plotting.
This adjusting function enables the device to respond to light-weight medium such as paper and
film and heavy-weight medium such as tarpaulin as thick as 0.5 mm.
• Depends on the purpose, head and the initial height can be set to two ranges.
• The height ranges for the JV22 series are : Lo range (1.5 mm/2.5 mm) for normal plot, and High
range (3.5 mm/4.5 mm) for transfer plot. The default set range is Lo range (1.5 mm).
• Adjust the head height before placing a medium on the device. If the head
height has been set for light-weight media when a heavy-weight medium is
to be placed on the device, moving the carriage from the capping station for
adjusting the head height after the medium is placed on the device can
cause paper jamming or head breakage.
• When in bidirection mode, adjust the head height before executing print
adjust in the maintenance function. Page 5.7
• If changing the ink to transfer ink (or water soluble pigment ink) after install-
ing the device, head initial height adjustment( Hi / Lo range) is needed. For
details, please ask your dealer.
