1-2 Printing on Transparent Media
This section explains how to print on transparent media by using each of four different methods.
Printing White Data and then CMYK Color Data (
CMYK-On-White
)
Use the CMYK-on-white method when you want to have a printed image as illustrated below.
1.
Prepare the printer.
❶
Press the [MENU] key and make the following settings.
●
Set "EDGE DETECTION" to "DISABLE".
●
Set "PREFEED" to "ENABLE".
❷
Load transparent media into the printer.
●
When the media you are loading into the printer warps or partially floats from the platen, load it into the
printer so that its front end goes about 20 cm (8 in.) from the starting edge of the print area.
●
Be sure to use the media clamps when you load media.
2.
Prepare the image files for printing.
After drawing an image using application software such as Adobe Illustrator, you need to create two PS files - one
for printing the white layer of the image, and the other for printing the CMYK layer of the image. In the following
procedures, it is assumed that you use the following files for printing: "Flag_Color.ps" which contains CMYK layer
of the image, and "Flag_White.ps" which contains white layer of the image.
