Process Pre-Printed Media and Use of the [Pre-printed mode] Setting

Introduction

The sytem is able to handle pre-printed media without problems if the guidelines regarding pre-printed media and inks are taken into account. In case media or inks are used that are not listed in the guidelines, the use of pre-printed media can lead to undesired print quality issues. To prevent print quality issues, a [Pre-printed mode] function is available on the printer. It is advised to enable the [Pre-printed mode] when there are problems with processing pre-printed media. The system will then be cleaned at fixed intervals. It is advised to enable the [Pre-printed mode] only when you process pre-printed media. Afterwards, the function should be disabled.

NOTE

Contact your local authorised dealer for the latest guidelines.
