If you are using a conveyor dryer, use a very slow belt speed and ensure the
garment lies flat. If you are using a Heat Press, you should apply the heating
element directly to the print with a piece of paper or a Teflon pad over the print.
You may also use a baking pan liner for this purpose.
You will probably scorch a shirt doing temperature tests, but this is normal in the
garment decorating business.
Some shirts might show a slight discoloration if you use a Heat Press to cure
the print. (This is most often seen in Red and medium to dark colors other than
Black .) This discoloration will usually go away when the shirt cools or when the
shirt is washed.
Preventative Maintenance
You must perform a Head Cleaning if
you experience one of the following
conditions: If streaks appear in the
print, small drops of ink get on the
garment during a printing cycle, if
the unit has been setting for a few
days or if the Print Head strikes a
garment. Press the RIGHT arrow
button for three seconds to have the
Fast T-Jet Blazer Pro initiate a Head
Cleaning cycle. You may do this in the
middle of a print job if necessary.
The best way to check print quality is to do a Nozzle Check.
If you have been printing a lot of shirts or if some of these shirts have come in
contact with the Print Head, you may have to manually wipe the bottom of the
Head to remove cotton lint. Also recheck the Platen height settings to avoid a
reoccurrence of this problem.
Often it is hard to see the White ink when doing a
standard nozzle check on a light shirt or piece of
paper. Conversely, it is hard to see colors on a dark
background. Use a piece of clear overhead
transparency film or our FastPOSITIVE Waterproof inkjet
film (used to make screens in the Screen Printing
industry) to do Nozzle Checks.
