Dehumidifying the Roll Media
Printing with a humidified media will result in several printing defects. The most popular defects are
“creasing” and “image void”.
If the roll media is kept in the Roll Deck for a long time with being exposed to the air, the media
tends to be more humidified and results in the above defects with higher frequency. To avoid this
situation as far as possible, the KIP 9900 is provided with the Dehumidify Heater for drying the roll
media in the Roll Deck.
If the above defects can be seen when the air is much humidified (higher than 60%), try to turn on
the Dehumidify Heater as the defects may be resolved.
