Avoiding substrate jams while printing Substrate jams may be caused by loading the substrate with too much skew: do not ignore the warning message that appears during the loading procedure in this case. They may also be caused by not enough vacuum suction in the printing zone. If you decide to increase the suction, do not exceed the following limits: 20 mmH2O for banners, 35 mmH2O for vinyl, and 50 mmH2O for other substrate families. If you experience jams only at the beginning of a print, try the following suggestions. 66 Chapter 3 Handle the substrate and troubleshoot substrate issues ENWW
