It is recommended that temperature of the front heater, print heater, and rear
heater be set to less than 50°C, 45°C, and 50°C respectively.
Note
- Setting a high temperature for the print heater makes ink fusion better, but
may cause wrinkles in the media or matte of the print surface. Adjust the heater
temperature according to the media type and ambient temperature.
- When the print heater is set to a high temperature, the printer lowers the printing
speed automatically in some cases to maintain stable print quality.
- Set the print heater and rear heater temperatures so that they are 5°C
higher than the print heater temperature. Bad temperature balance between print
heater/rear heater and print heater may cause wrinkles in the media.
- Setting a high temperature for the print heater may cause nozzle-out.
