Preparing Your Printer for Printing The Printing Procedure
Sprinter User's Manual 8-35
The reference is to the distance in dots from each PRINT HEAD to the first
one.
The first P
RINT HEAD (the Yellow,) is therefore always referenced as zero. For
initial reference, the distance between each P
RINT HEAD is about 4,000
dots. However, if the Y
ELLOW HEAD has to be adjusted, this can be done in
the P
RINT dialog box, in one of two ways, as shown in the following
example:
If the Yellow precedes the other three colors by 10 dots, you can either
adjust each of the CMK H
EADS by '–10', or adjust the Yellow by +10. This
will result in the new H
EAD DELAY value for the CMK HEADS being reduced
by 10 units in the C
ONFIGURATION dialog box and the Yellow's value
remaining at zero.
! To print the enqueued files and carry out the optional O
NLINE HEAD
DELAY adjustment:
1. Run a check of all the settings in the E
DIT, CONFIGURATION and CONTROL
dialog boxes.
2. From the M
AIN SCREEN, click PRINT.
The P
RINTING dialog box appears (Error! Reference source not found.).
The software loads the printer and the printing process commences.
If required, during the printing process, adjust the H
EAD DELAY in the
relative drop-down combo box.
You can monitor the printing process from the P
RINTING dialog box, in
the P
RINTING STATUS group box.
You can also monitor the remaining quantity of Ribbon and Substrate
installed on the printer, from the R
EMAINING RIBBONS AND SUBSTRATE
group box.
When the printing process is complete, the P
RINTING dialog box closes
and the word ‘D
ONE’ appears next to the queued files, on the MAIN
SCREEN.
3. Click the U
NLOAD icon in the MAIN SCREEN.
When the printing is complete, the 24v power supply shuts down
automatically.
When the amount of any Ribbon reaches 10m and that of the Substrate
reaches 5m, a red warning is displayed in the Printing dialog box.
Do not leave the Rubber Rollers in the UP position for more than 60 seconds.
If more than 60 seconds do pass, the software will automatically bring them
down.
