Epson 1400 setup Insert the Epson Stylus 1400 software CD-ROM into your CD-ROM drive. The CD will auto run. Select 'Custom Install' from the menu, as in diagram 1 below. When Diagram 2 appears click 'Printer Driver'. It will display diagram 3, click OK and it will copy files to your computer. Make sure the USB cable is connected to the PC and printer, then turn on the printer as instructed in diagram 4. After the utility has found your printer it will confirm this as in diagram 5.
Crystal Print Process Plug Crystal Print machine into the mains and lift the lid. (note: ensure machine is level before proceeding) Turn on the Power and Lamp switches only. Set the timer dial below to one minute. The Crystal Print films are 3 ply. They have 2 protective backings on, one on each side. Prior to printing remove the easier to peel clear film (smooth feel) from one side of the media. If it is the frosted backing (rough feel) this is the wrong side to print onto.
Crystal to Crystal Process Once you have produced your crystal, some products have a base that also needs glueing into position. Set an independent timer to 30 seconds, and lift the lid on the Crystal Print machine. Position the base on the glass. Sparingly apply a little Crystal to Crystal glue to the base. Angle the top crystal onto the base and align. Turn on the Power and Pro-UV switches as in the diagram below.
