Changing the roll of printing substrate
The roll of printing substrate has to be inserted in the unwinding unit so that
it unrolls either counterclockwise or clockwise, depending on whether the
outside or the inside of the printing substrate is supposed to be printed.
The direction of rotation of the roll depends on the winding direction of the
printing substrate.
The printer may stay turned on during the replacement.
Notice
Use only substrates with edges not prone to bowing or becoming
wavy when stretched in place. The max. amount of permissible bow-
ing or waviness is 0.2 mm to avoid rubbing against the nozzle plates
of the print heads.
Do not open and remove the protective film of the substrate roll
until ready to use the roll.
Store any leftover material rolls in a warm, dry place or seal the roll
airtight in plastic film until ready to use again.
If necessary, dry the ends of the roll of printing substrate with a hot
air gun.
Notice
For each substrate web roll, measure the material thickness first!
Be sure that at the printing table the proper deflection rollers rollers
are installed, compare chapter “4.6.15.1 Printing table with exchange-
able deflection rollers
Only the operator of the plant is responsible for damages caused due
to ignoring this requirement!
