The printheads are pushed on via two plungers (1). In the basic setting the plungers are set in the middle of the
printhead retainer. This setting can be used for the most applications.
In the basic settings for Ladder format HS sleeves the 2 upper and lower printhead plungers should be positioned at
the 70 mm marks.
If the print density decreases in the outer areas when using very large media, the plungers can be displaced :
1. Turn lever (3) clockwise and the lever (4) counterclockwise to lock the printheads.
2. Loosen Allen screws (2) at the plungers (1) with Allen key.
3. Displace the plungers symmetrically to straddle the loaded media up to the maximum value of 70 on the scale.
4. Tighten the Allen screws (2).
