Printing margins
The GERBER SOLARA UV2 is able to print on a wide variety of materials at widths ranging
from 18" to 60" (46 to 152 cm). When scanning the material width the GERBER SOLARA UV2
will also automatically apply a ¼" (6mm) printing margin to either side of the material. It is
possible to print to the edges of rigid material by choosing Rigid Bleed as the material type and
following the instructions in “Printing full bleed on rigid materials” on page 86.
The printing margins vary depending on the type of material used. For vinyl material, the UV
shields are installed ¼" (6mm) over the material to both protect from excess UV light and also to
act as material hold-down devices to kept the edges from curling during printing. The
automatic printing margin of ¼" (6mm) is added from the edge of the shield, making the total
margin ½" (12mm) on each side. For rigid material, the UV shields are not used as material
hold-downs, so only the automatic ¼" (6mm) margin is applied. See the following chart for
more information.
