Setting the Print Heater Temperature
Setting the temperature of the print heater appropriately improves ink adhesion and inhibits smudging.
• With the default settings, simply switching on the power does not make the dryer warm up to the set
temperature. On completion of media setup, the temperature rises to the set value.
• Depending on the usage environment, the temperature of the dryer may become higher than the set
temperature, but this does not represent a problem.
• Temperature settings are not possible when [Heater Power] accessed from [Media Settings]>[Heater
Settings]>[Heater Temperature] is off.
Procedure
1. Load the media.
2. Tap the following location on the home screen.
The [Heater Temperature] screen appears.
3. Check that the [Heater Power] check box is selected.
4.
Tap or to set the [Print Heater] temperature.
If the ink forms lumps or smudges, raise the temperature. Note, however, that a temperature that
is too high may degrade the media or cause it to wrinkle.
