Recommendations for best results
Preparation
•
••
•
Peel the protective film off one side; place this side up on table. If firmly affixed to media, adhesive
based protective films can be left on the backside while printing. Print on the side without lettering
or graphics on the protective film to avoid transfer effect from printed areas. This type of film
creates less static when removed.
•
••
•
Ensure that the ionizer is power on and functioning.
•
••
•
Apply isopropyl alcohol greater than 90% and wipe down each sheet prior to printing for additional
static control.
•
••
•
Wipe with an anti-static cloth or device to remove static charge and possible cutting remnants.
•
••
•
Ensure that media tables are attached and secured to the printer to provide a grounding path for
static loaded material.
Printing
•
••
•
These materials are heavy in larger sizes. Do not exceed the maximum weight specifications for
the printer. Flatness, size, smoothness, and weight will affect the consistency of media feed
through the printer.
•
••
•
Depending on end-use application, ink adhesion may be an issue. To minimize this issue, clean
the media as directed and use a color profile that has low ink saturation.
•
••
•
Ink saturation and curing are best in Production or High Quality modes
•
••
•
Use Low or Medium lamp setting depending on number of hours on lamps and curing efficiency.
•
••
•
These materials usually are heavy enough to lie flat without belt vacuum
•
••
•
The media may expand and contract during printing. If possible use material with known good
thermal expansion characteristics.
•
••
•
Use Backlit or a generic color profile, depending on application.
Output Handling
•
••
•
Handle with clean cotton gloves to avoid fingerprints
•
••
•
Use care when lifting sheets off table, as the media may be scratched
