How The Ioline FlexJet Works
The FlexJet creates printed images through synchronized media and
carriage motion. Files are sent to the printer from a computer or file
server via a serial or USB connection.
When the printer receives a file, the electronic logic system translates
the vector image into X-axis (paper motion) and Y-axis (carriage mo-
tion) instructions and uses digital feedback to ensure plot accuracy.
The FlexJet breaks the plot file into frame segments in order to plot
long markers. The printer then rolls the frame segments onto a take-
up shaft. The FlexJet can roll up to 600 yards onto the take-up shaft
at a time.

In this manual the right and left
side refers to the right and left
side of the front of the FlexJet.
Design software usually refers
to the
Origin
(or Start Point)
as “lower left” because it is the
lower left corner of a plot. The
plot is usually oriented in the
printer rotated 90 degrees coun-
ter clockwise as shown in Figure
5 . The lower left corner of the
plot is physically on the right side
of the printer.
