In addition, DO NOT not allow fans to blow air across the Print Head. This will dry
the ink and cause a clog, seriously effecting your printer’s performance.
Print With the Lid Closed
Due to the airborne nature of the White ink Pretreatment, you should try to
pretreat shirts in a different room or far away from the machine. If pretreating
in a different room is not an option, then make sure the lid on the printer is
kept closed at all times, especially during the print process. Pretreatment will
immediately clog the Print Head if it comes in contact with any ink. We strongly
suggest creating a separate enclosed area, such as a large cardboard box as
an absolute minimum. This will help keep overspray away from Print Head and
the Encoder Strip as well.
Preparing your Fast T-Jet Blazer Pro for Downtime
We recommend you schedule Automatic Head Cleanings every
6 to 8 hours using FastRIP. This will help prevent Print Head and
Capping Station issues caused by dried ink. This is especially
important if the printer will be idle longer than ONE day (24 hrs).
Refer to Chapter 7 of your FastARTIST User’s Manual for details on
configuring this feature.
In the event your Fast T-Jet Blazer Pro is going to sit more than 30 days without
use , you MUST:
Remove all of the bulk ink cartridges and replace them with cleaning solution 1.
cartridges.
Perform a minimum of 2-3 Power Cleanings to flush ink from the Ink Lines.
Perform as many Power Cleanings as needed until all of the Ink Lines are
Clear . Then execute one more Power Cleaning to thoroughly flush the
system. (Refer to Chapter 2 for instructions on executing Power Cleanings.)
Ensure the Print Head docks securely on the Capping Station with no visible 2.
gaps.
Power OFF the printer from the UI, flip the Breaker Switch to the OFF position 3.
and unplug the printer from its AC source.
DO NOT RUN A NOZZLE CHECK WITH CLEANING CARTRIDGES.
Cleaning solution will leak out into printer, causing serious
damage.
