Print on the thick and heavy media
17
• Printing on the substrate of up to 2 inches (50mm) thick
• The maximum loadable weight of substrate is up to 110lb (50kg/m²)
• About the head gap
• The gap between the head and the substrate should be less than 2mm
• If the gap is set wider than 2mm, the ink drop tends to become mist before it reaches onto the substrate
• Furthermore, if the gap is to wide, the reflected light from the UV curing lamp increases. This leads to a cause of an
error of the ink droplet onto the substrate or the nozzle clogging, because the reflected light may increase the
viscosity of the ink mist
