3.3.6 Heater settings
The pre-heater, platen heater, drier, and air heater are built into this printer.
 Pre-heater: Set up, to pre-heat the media before printing. For roll media, set the
temperature higher than that of the platen heater.
 Platen heater: Warms up the media to increase adhesion property of ink and printing
quality.
 Drier: Dries the ink after printing
 Air-heater: Blows hot air on the media surface while printing on thick media to accelerate
drying of the ink.
Set appropriate heater temperatures depending on the media.
The following is a guide for temperature settings.
 For marking films
 Pre-heater: 45°C
 Platen heater: 40°C
 Drier: 50°C
 Air-heater: 130°C
 For 5 mm plastic cardboard
 Pre-heater: Off
 Platen heater: Off
 Drier: Off
 Air-heater: 160°C
Note
 When printing on thick media, use both air heater and platen heater.
If printing using only one of the heaters, the heated surface of the thick media
expands, which warps the media, causing head friction.
