2. Setting up GT-3 Series
2-6-6. Aligning the Print Position of White / Color Print Heads
When Firing Adjustment is complete, align the White and Color print positions.
On the GT-3 Series, the White Print Heads apply a base coat and the Color Print Heads are then used to
draw the design. For that reason, if the print positions of the White and Color are not perfectly aligned, the
base White Ink will be printed outside the target print surface, Color Ink will be applied to material to which no
White Ink has been applied, resulting in such problems as dull colors.
Align the white and color Head print positions using the GT-3 Maintenance in [Brother GT-3 Tools].
Preparation
1.
Prepare a piece of dark-colored knitted cloth (or T-shirt).
2.
Apply pretreatment solution to the cloth and then secure on the printer.
