Chapter 9 - SETUP PART 7: Print Head Alignments - BLAZER PRO
68
T-Jet Blazer Series User’s Manual
Check the distance between the Print Head and the 2. Shirt Board.
For this procedure you will need the 3 standard-size Shirt Boards loaded onto the Blazer PRO. The
Shirt Board must have the media in place (whether it be lm, paper or plexi-glass) to print the test
pattern on, before adjusting the distance setting. A DISTANCE OF 3 MM IS REQUIRED. This
step is important in the process, because the distance between the Print Head and the “Media” used
during the alignment process will need to be the exact distance between the Print Head and the
garment that you will later print on. 3mm is the ideal setting and will give you the most crisp prints.
If this is not recorded and adjusted correctly, your alignment process will not be as accurate for later
printing.
3. Set the printer from Print to “Ready/Sheet” status by pressing the
LEFT/PAPER button twice on the LCD Control Panel. The display
will read “Ready” and display a “sheet of paper” icon. Only when in
“Ready/Sheet” status can the Printer Assembly be moved freely.
4. Using the “RIGHT hand” button, shufe through the UI screens
until you get to the Mode Select screen. Conrm that the mode is set to Manual.
Press the “RIGHT hand” button on the UI again until you reach 5.
the Manual Mechanism Movement Utility (MMMU) screen.
Prepare the media that you are printing on. 6.
The Blazer PRO can print out all 3 “Dot Sizes” in 1 media layout of three 8 1/2 x 11” pieces of
media. The measurements of where the media need to be located are different for Uni-Directional and
Bi-Directional Alignments. Refer to the Introduction of this chapter to determine which alignment is
needed.
Uni-Directional Media Layout.
Align the media with the upper left hand corner of the Shirt Board
(the bottom right hand corner if facing the front of the printer). Over
hang the lm 1/2” over the right edge of the Shirt Board.
Measure from the end of the platen (where the metal
platen handle is attached), 14”. This is where the rst
sheet needs to be placed. The second sheet will be at 25”
and the third at 38.5”.
