Print on mesh tarpaulin (without dedicated liner)

This section explains how to print on mesh media that does not have a dedicated liner attached to it. If mesh media with a dedicated liner is used these instructions are not necessary.

CAUTION If a dedicated liner is provided with the mesh tarpaulin, this must be used. Printing on mesh media without a liner allows the ink to pass through the media, consequently soiling the back of the media and the platen.

CAUTION To avoid potential damage to the printheads, make sure that the carriage height is set to the highest position before printing on mesh tarpaulin (Refer to Change the printhead height).

CAUTION Do not use mesh media that is thin and very supple because this will rub on the printheads.

CAUTION If the media width is narrower than the liner width: use the special edge guards to hold down both sides of the media (Refer to Use the special edge guards for use with a liner) and set DETECT WIDTH to NONE (Refer to Media width detection (WIDTH DETECTION)).

NOTE Because the liner wrinkles easily, it is recommended that if it is wound onto the take-up reel, only the liner is taken-up and not the printed media.

NOTE When using a liner, it is recommended to use the separator bar to separate the liner and the printed media. If a separator bar support assembly is not installed, you must install it to use the separator bar (Refer to Install the separator bar support assembly).
