Troubleshooting
Probable Cause
Remedy
Do the print heads rub against a T-shirt?
With reference to "6-5. Placing print medium in position >>P.152",
flatten the surface of T-shirt, and adjust the platen's height as
required.
Has the flushing foam become dirty?
With reference to "7-1-4. Replacing the flushing foam >>P.189",
replace the dirty flushing foam with a new one.
Has the platen sheet become dirty?
With reference to "7-2-5. Replacing the platen sheet >>P.205",
replace the dirty platen sheet with a new one.
Has any ink attached to the carriage that secures
the print heads in place or is it dripping off?
With reference to "7-2-4. Cleaning the CR (carriage) plate
>>P.203", perform the cleaning of the carriage plate and remove
the accumulated ink.
The edges of the image are blurred, characters and straight lines are doubly printed and printed
result appears too granular
Probable Cause
Remedy
Is the platen positioned at a level that is too low?
With reference to "6-5. Placing print medium in position >>P.152",
adjust the height of the platen corresponding to the print medium
before using it. You can use the platen height adjustment lever to
adjust the height of platen. As a rough indication, adjust the height
so that it is lowered by one step from the limit height detected by
the obstacle sensor, and check that the platen is not detected by
the sensor.
Is the firing timing correct?
With reference to "7-4-3. Firing adjustment >>P.216", make the
firing adjustment again. It is likely that the setup value is
incorrectly set after replacing a print head or the platen with a new
one, or after adjusting the platen height.
Is the image enlarged on the printer setting screen? When a low resolution image is enlarged on the printer setting
screen, it may blur or angle the image. Pattern data should be
enlarged on an image editing application, and its roughness
should be checked.
Thin color cannot be printed out well gradually
Probable Cause
Remedy
Is the ambient atmosphere at a high temperature
and very dry, which in turn tends to cause the
nozzle surface to dry up?
With reference to "8-3. Flushing Interval Setting >>P.226",
perform the flushing more frequently. In addition, by reference to
"8-4. Flushing Volume Setting >>P.226", increase the flushing
volume.
White ink is not printed out evenly
Probable Cause
Remedy
Has the pretreatment been applied unevenly?
With reference to "6-3-3. Application of pretreatment >>P.135",
apply the recommended amount of pretreatment evenly to the
target area.
Has the pretreatment caused any change in
hardness or deformation of the pretreatment roller?
(This applies to the case where the pretreatment
roller is used.)
After the pretreatment roller is used, put it in a plastic bag or the
like hermetically to prevent it from drying up, and keep it in a flat
place in an upright position.
Also, when it remains unused for two weeks or longer, wash it
well with running water, and let it dry in a shaded area.
