Is the printer installed in a level and stable location?
Never install the machine in a location where it is tilted or where it may wobble or experience vibration.
Also make sure that the print heads are not exposed to moving air. These factors may lead to dot drop-out
or reduced printing quality.
Is the media heating system at a suitable temperature?
If the ink forms lumps or smudges, raise the temperature. Note, however, that a temperature that is too
high may degrade the media or cause it to wrinkle.

Is the temperature of the room too low?
The media heating system may not warm up sufficiently when the ambient temperature is less than 20°C
(68°F). Also, even when the media heating system reaches its set temperatures, adequate effectiveness
may not be apparent if the media is thoroughly chilled. Before printing, allow the media to come to room
temperature.
Is the print mode suitable?
If attractive printing is impossible even when the media heating system is at a high temperature, try using
a higher-quality print mode. Depending on the media, smudging may occur when using a high-quality print
mode, and results may also vary greatly depending on the settings of your software RIP (such as the color-
profile selection). Select settings appropriate for the media you are using.
Is the media loaded correctly?
If the media is not loaded correctly or the media feed is not smooth, output may be adversely affected.
Load the media correctly.
