● The substrate can bend and crease easily. Watch for edges that may strike the carriage. ● Some materials are more porous and absorb the ink, giving a washed-out appearance. Use the RIP software's Saturated rendering intent option to increase saturation. ● Use gloves to avoid transferring fingerprints and oils to the print surface. ● Use caution when lifting it off the table to avoid creases. Textiles This topic explains the concepts involved in this subject. Preparation ● Store substrates flat, in a clean environment with the same or similar temperature and humidity as in the printer room. Changes in temperature or humidity will cause the material to warp. ● Clean with a lint-free cloth to remove any dust and debris. ● The substrate can bend and crease easily. Watch for edges that may strike the carriage. Recommended print modes ● Depending on application, ink coverage, and image content, all print modes may print acceptably. Faster print modes are less susceptible to bowing of the substrate due to heat. Printing ● Select Textile when configuring and loading these substrates. ● Some colored substrates may not be detectable by the onboard camera. In this case, create a copy of the Card Stock substrate using the Substrate Wizard and change the Detectable by printer option to No. ● Use the Warped media option when loading non-flat substrates. Using this option reduces the available print area. ● Use the lowest possible UV lamp power setting to cure the ink. ● Use a Textile substrate preset from the RIP software. ● Some materials are more porous and absorb the ink, giving a washed-out appearance. Use the RIP software's Saturated rendering intent option to increase saturation. Output handling ● Use caution when lifting it off the table to avoid creases.
