Perform a Nozzle Check
A Nozzle Check is used to ensure the Print Head is performing properly. You may
use either paper or lm for this test, but we recommend lm such as FastPOSITIVE,
available from U.S. Screen. Otherwise it’s difcult to see White ink on White
paper. To initiate a Nozzle Check:
Take the printer from 1. Print to “Ready (Sheet)” status by pressing the LEFT
arrow button twice. The LCD display will read “Ready” and you will see a
“sheet of paper” icon. Only when in “Ready (Sheet)” status can the Printer
Assembly be moved.
Using the “RIGHT hand” button, shufe through the UI screens until you get to 2.
the Mode Select screen. Ensure the virtual dial is set to Manual.
Press the “RIGHT hand” button on the UI again until you reach the 3. Manual
Mechanism Movement Utility (MMMU) screen.
Place your sheet of lm or paper on the 4. rst Shirtboard. The rst position is
furthest from the UI and power cables. Take care to align the lm or paper
with the Shirtboard’s lower right hand corner (as you face the front of the
printer.)
Under the heading 5. Position, press the Index button. This will advance the
Printer Assembly to the beginning of the Platen. Using the Rev button, position
the Printer Assembly over the medium onto which you will print.
You must now change the printer mode to “Ready (Roll).” Press the LEFT 6.
arrow button on the LCD Control Panel twice. The display will read “Ready”
with a “roll of paper” icon.
On Control Panel, press the RIGHT arrow once and the display will read 7.
“Printer Setup.” Press the DOWN arrow once to see “Test Print.”
Press the RIGHT arrow button once to see “Nozzle Check.” Press the RIGHT 8.
arrow again and “Print” will appear in the display.
To execute the Nozzle Check, press the RIGHT arrow button once.9.
If the Nozzle Check does not print correctly, perform a regular Head Cleaning.
This is done by holding down the RIGHT arrow button for 3 seconds. After the
Head Cleaning has been completed, execute another Nozzle Check.
