Using the Control Panel Menu 206
Heater Temperature Pre-heater/platen heater:
30 °C to 50 °C
(86 °F to 122 °F)
After heater: 30 °C to 55 °C
(86 °F to 131 °F)
The temperatures for the pre-, platen, and after heaters can each be
adjusted separately.
Drying Time Per Pass 0 to 10sec Select the time the print head pauses to allow drying after each pass.
Choose from values between 0.0 and 10.0 seconds. The time needed
for the ink to dry varies with ink density and the media used. If the
ink blurs on the media, set a longer time for drying the ink.
Increasing the drying time increases the time needed to print.
After Heater Feed Mode 1 To feed media to the after heater after printing, choose Mode 1 or
Mode 2; otherwise, choose Off.
If Mode 1 is selected, the portion fed for drying will not be rewound
before the next job starts. Select this option if the media will be cut
before the next job starts.
If Mode 2 is selected, the portion fed for drying will be rewound
before the next job starts, eliminating unnecessary margin. Select
this option if multiple jobs will be printed consecutively.
