SECTION 3

OPERATING THE PRINTER

You can change the speeds to a lower speed as follows:

Feed Delay is used to put more

space between pieces as they are

printed. This allows the first piece

printed more time to dry before next

piece is printed. Adjustment range

is in 0.1-second increments. Feature

works at all speeds.

Overlay is used to save time

printing when you combine a

database with fixed information or

graphics. Default is “No overlay”.

To use the Overlay feature, first create a layout in an application such as Microsoft Word. Place all of the

fixed information and graphics on this layout. Open the layout and go to Print in the File menu. Click

Features and then click Overlay. Select “Contains overlay” from the box, then click Apply and OK.

Next click OK on the “Print” window. The overlay will download.

Open the job that contains the variable data and using File then Print from the dropdown menu, open the

“Print” window for the application. Click Properties, then the Features tab. Then click on the dropdown

menu under “Overlay” and click “Previous job contains overlay”. Click Apply, then OK. When the

“Print” window reappears, click OK to send the job to the Printer. To start printing, press ENTER.

If you wish to print a second job using the same overlay, open that job and send it to the Printer. If the next

job does not contain an overlay, then click Properties in the “Print” window, select Overlay, then No

overlay. Click Apply, then OK.

To print the next job with a different overlay, repeat the process for the first overlay.

NOTE: Turning the Printer OFF, then ON clears the overlay and the job.

Print Heads Tab

Permits slight (0.001") adjustments to the positions of the Printheads in relation to each other. The

adjustment is used to precisely align the three Printheads when printing graphics or type that extends

beyond the width of one Printhead. Each Head can be moved +/- 0.048" in 0.001" increments.

To move the Printhead toward the lead edge of your layout, move it in the “-” direction.

To move the Printhead away from the lead edge, move it in the “+” direction.
