What to Do Before Printing
• Check the ink level in the ink tank before printing. If the ink runs out during printing, printing will
stop. If printing stops, the print image quality may be affected.
• If no operator will be present while printing from a roll, make sure that the ink tank is at least half
full (the liquid level in the ink tank is 150 mm (5.9 inches) or more) before you start printing. If the
ink runs out during printing, printing may stop.
• If no operator will be present while printing from a roll, make sure that the waste liquid tank is less
than half full (the liquid level in the waste liquid tank is 150 mm (5.9 inches) or less) before you
start printing. If there is not enough space in the waste liquid tank, waste liquid may leak during
printing.
• Make sure that the clamp covers at both ends of the roll shaft of the feeding unit and the clamp
covers at both ends of the roll shaft of the winding unit are all locked.
• Make sure that the front cover, feeding unit gear cover and winding unit gear cover are all closed.
If any of the covers is open during printing, the print image quality may be affected.
• Make sure the media feeding and winding switches have been set correctly.
