Notes about printing

Print only on untreated vinyl. This printer is not intended for printing on coated vinyl or other media.

This printer is not designed for unattended operation. Be sure that the media weight bar is placed on the media as shown in the Quick Start Guide. This keeps the media the correct distance from the IR bulb and helps to assure proper ink curing.
