Start automatic maintenance

Introduction

Start automatic maintenance in case of quality issues.

The printer performs a purge and wipe and optionally you can print a nozzle classification chart to optimize the nozzles.

Procedure

  1. On the operator panel tap on the [Tools] icon on the right.
  2. Tap on [Automatic maintenance].
  3. When you want to print a nozzle classification chart to optimise the nozzles:
    1. Make sure [Automatic nozzle optimisation] is selected.
    2. Select a roll to print the nozzle classification chart on.
    NOTE

    The nozzle classification chart can only be printed on media of one of the following categories:

    • Heavy paper > 200 gsm

    • Paper 120-200 gsm

    • Film

    • Polymeric & cast self-adhesive vinyl

    • Thick film > 200 um

    On the other media categories, these procedures cannot be performed.

    When no roll is loaded with one of the above mentioned categories, no roll will be indicated for the automatic nozzle optimisation.

    Use a media width that is as large as possible and larger than 840 mm in order to get the best optimisation results.

  4. Tap on [Start].

    The printer starts the purge and wipe and then prints the chart in case you selected it.
