Chapter 2 Basic Operation

Installing the Antistatic Fabric

Some types of media have a tendency to generate static
electricity.
We recommend attaching the antistatic fabric to prevent a
decline in print quality caused by static electricity.

Installation position of the antistatic
fabric

Standards for installing the ink receiving
spacer and the fabric edge spacer

• Makes sure that the width of the ink receiving

spacer and the fabric edge spacer combined is not
less than the width of the image being printed.

• Adjust the number of spacers so that there is a gap

of at least 10 mm to the edge of the image on the
left and right.

• Move the edge of the fabric edge spacer as close

as possible to the edge of the media.

Note that the antistatic fabric does not
completely eliminate static electricity.

• The antistatic fabric reduces the influence of static

electricity. Therefore, attaching the antistatic fabric
does not completely prevent any decline in print
quality caused by static electricity.

• You can also reduce the generation of static

electricity by using humidifiers in combination with
the antistatic fabric.

Fabric edge spacer

Amount of overprint:
less than 20 mm

Print width

Media

Ink receiving
spacer

10mm or more

Fabric
edge
spacer

Increase the gap in the ink receiving spacer
according to the margins in the media, and
adjust so that the gap is equal.

Amount of overprint:
less than 20 mm

Attach antistatic
fabric to the front
of the vertical
section of the
pinch rollers.
