1.5 PERFECT MEDIA HANDLING
The DT-series printer prints on transfer paper with water-based disperse dye inks. An annoying effect of
transfer paper when coming into contact with ink is expansion of the media.
Notes :
The transfer papers with a low g/m², the thinnest, are most sensitive to expanding. This
expansion results in media coming up from the print platform between the different
pressure rollers.
Therefore, the DT-series printer has been specially developed to avoid the media cockling to occur and to
minimize the print heads to touch the media when minimal media cockling occurs.
1.5.1. Measurements to prevent media cockling
Media cockling is prevented to avoid the print heads to touch the media (protect heads and print result) and
to avoid the cockling structure to become apparent in the print result.
1.5.1.1. Unwinder / winder 100
The unwinder / winder 100 system always provides an equal tension on the media when printing.
It is important that the unwinder / winder 100 is perfectly lined out to prevent cockling. To line out the
unwinder / winder 100, please refer to the user’s guide “Handling Roll Media”.
Caution :
•
Before installation and alignment of the unwinder / winder 100, please make sure
the printer is placed level!
