• Use media recommended by MIMAKI to ensure reliable, high-quality printing.
Set the heater temperature to meet the characteristics of the media.
• Set the temperature of the Pre-heater, Print heater and Post-heater according to the
type and characteristics of the media used.
Automatic temperature setting can be made on the operation panel by setting the profile on
the dedicated RIP. For setting on the RIP, refer to the instruction manual for your RIP.
• Pay attention to the expansion and contraction of the media.
Do not use media immediately after unpacking. The media can be affected by the room
temperature and humidity, and thus it may expand and contract.
The media have to be left in the atmosphere in which they are to be used for 30 minutes or
more after unpacked.
• Do not use curled media.
This may result in paper jamming.
If a regular-sized coated sheet of media is rolled and stored, the coated side has to face
outside.
