● The highest position is not used for printing: it may be used for loading substrate or for maintenance tasks. ● A custom position is used for thick substrates, or for substrates that wrinkle slightly due to heating. TIP: Try to avoid wrinkling by using substrates that do not wrinkle, or by using a slower print mode that will allow you to lower the heating temperature. We recommend setting the custom position to the thickness of the substrate plus two or three millimeters. The current setting is indicated in the front panel by a √ mark. Handle the substrate ● The normal position is suitable for unwrinkled substrates up to 0.7 mm (0.03 in) thick. Prepare to print There are basically three steps that must be followed before the printer can print: 1. Start the printer. 2. Load the substrate. 3. Select the substrate type in the HP Internal Print Server. TIP: If the printer has been idle overnight with substrate loaded, and exposed to high or low temperatures, advance the substrate 5 to 10 inches (13 to 25 cm) before printing, to avoid printhead crashes or ink smears on the substrate. Load a roll onto the spindle The spindle has a pneumatic connector at one end and a gear at the other. 1. Rest the roll on a trolley, a table or the floor, and insert the spindle into it. 2. Connect the air gun to the pneumatic connector on the spindle, and inflate the spindle so that it cannot move inside the roll. 20 Chapter 3 Handle the substrate ENWW
