1-3 Important Notes on Printing
*If equipped with both Metallic Silver ink and White ink, Lk (Light Black) ink is not used. Ignore
"Lk" in this manual.
Using the Middle Pinch Rollers in Printing and Cutting
Since metallic silver ink and white ink are dicult to dry, the middle pinch rollers will smudge the printed
surface when printing and cutting are performed. Thus, when you perform printing and cutting using metal-
lic silver ink and/or white ink, secure the media in place using only two pinch rollers on the right and the left.
However, some types of the media may partially oat and it may cause bad eect on printing, feeding and/
or cutting. Use the media after conrmation of the nature of your media.
Important Notes on Using Media Take-up System
Since metallic silver ink and white ink are dicult to dry, if you use the media take-up system (at your option),
media and/or the printed surface may be smudged depending on the type of media you use. If you use the
media take-up system leaving the middle pinch rollers removed, some types of the media may not be taken
up normally and/or cause bad eect on printing, feeding and/or cutting quality as well as partial oat of the
media. Be sure to use the media take-up system on conrmation of the nature and compatibility of your media.
Important Notes in Using Transparent Media
Loading Transparent Media
Set the [EDGE DETECTION] menu item to "DISABLE". Transparent media cannot be loaded unless this set-
ting is made.
Ensure a margin of at least 75 mm from the leading edge of the media to the printing- or cutting-start
location.
Important Notes On The Amount Of Media Remaining
When you use transparent media, the presence of media cannot be detected. In such cases, printing opera-
tion does not stop when the media runs out, and there is a chance that the platen or the like may become
soiled with ink or that ink may get inside and damage the machine.
If media runs out while printing is in progress, immediately press
to stop printing.
Using The Middle Pinch Rollers
The middle pinch rollers scratch media slightly, and on transparent media such scratches can be very notice-
able. Also, the middle pinch rollers will smudge the printed surface when transparent media is pulled back
after printing. When you use transparent media, secure the media in place using only two pinch rollers on
the right and the left.
Automatic Crop-mark Detection
Automatic crop-mark detection may not be possible for some media, such as transparent media. In such cases,
perform alignment manually.
