• Set the lever to "Thick" when a thicker media such as a tarpaulin or FF is used.
• Set the lever to the lower stage (Thick) if dust is likely to gather in the head or the head is likely
to rub on the media to leave ink on it.
• If solvent ink is selected, do not use with H range. It adversely affects the image quality.
• When using the media of 1mm thickness or below and SS21 ink, be sure to set the head
height to “Thin”.
If using with the head height “Thick”, as the head gap (between the media and the height of
head nozzle surface) can be too large and ink drops may be splashed, the image quality
cannot be assured.
