axis against the motor force!
3. Make sure that the EMERGENCY OFF switch is unsealed.
4. Connect the wallPen with the supplied power cord to a power outlet with ground
fault circuit interrupter (RCD).
5. Switch on the device at the main switch.
6. Wait about 60 to 90 seconds for the printer to automatically initialize the vertical
and printhead axis, heating up the printheads, and establishing a WiFi connection
with your tablet.
7. Select the actual printer placement: On tracks or freely steerable.
8. Move the Y axis upwards using the proper slider to either find or define an upper

printed.

distance of the printhead unit to the wall stays in a range of about 2 to 6 mm all the
time.
