Clean the Print Carriage Drive Belt Gear
During normal operating
conditions, lint that is coated with
Pretreatment can get caught in
the Print Carriage Drive Belt Gear,
located in the right rear of the
housing. This lint will start to clog
the gear and the belt will slip,
causing the Print Carriage to jerk
and/or not complete print jobs.
Periodically check this gear and if
necessary, clean it with a brush or
computer vacuum. At the opposite end of the Printer Assembly is a Drive Belt
Roller. Occasionally this component will require cleaning as well.
While performing maintenance on any internal printer part, make sure to avoid
ANY contact with the Encoder Strip. It is fragile and can be easily damaged!
Shake Shirts or Preheat to Minimize Lint
T-Shirts generate a lot of lint and it is important to minimize the amount of lint
inside your machine. Get in the habit of shaking a shirt before loading it. If you
feel shirts you are using generate excess lint, use a Pet Hair Pickup Roller on the
shirt after it is placed on the Shirtboard. You may also preheat them in a Heat
Press for just a few seconds to atten the bers.
No Windex
The Red Plexiglas window on the top of your Fast T-Jet Blazer does not like
Windex. Using this as a cleaning solution will cause the window to crack and
possibly break over time. Use only a mild soap and water solution to clean this
part of your printer. You may use Windex on the metallic sides and Platen, but
take care not to allow ANY Overspray land on the window area.
Five Minute Daily Maintenance
Daily maintenance is a very critical part of keeping your printer performing at its
best. By not following the required daily maintenance described below you will
void your warranty as well as damage the machine.
Many of these items have been covered earlier in this Manual, but the
following list will help you prioritize what maintenance items should be done on
a regular basis.
