6.2 ALIGNING THE PRINT HEADS
1. Select the ‘Service Print Head’ option under the
Service menu. This will get the print heads started
and verify that they are operating correctly.
2. Bring the build piston all the way up, open the top
cover and place the alignment pad and any additional
backing required in the build area, to the right and
rear of the build area.
3.
PLEASE NOTE: After every print head change, you must perform the alignment procedure.
Technical Tips –
• Use the Z Corporation alignment pads. They are
bound on two sides so that the paper lays flatter.
If the paper is not flat, you may get erroneous
results.
• When the alignment paper is too low on the Build
Pallet, the pattern will become blurred. To print a
sharp pattern, place additional pad or cardboard
(from the alignment pad) underneath to raise the
height of the alignment paper. For best results,
the pad should be at the height of the Top Deck.
If it is too high up, the roller will hit the pad and
move it.
