Porous substrates
Porous substrates may be used with the 360 printer and the ink collector, with which you must use the take-
up reel.
The 310 and 330 printers are not designed to be used with porous substrates, and could be damaged by
them, requiring a service repair not covered by your warranty.
To check the porosity of your substrate, proceed as follows.
1.
If the printer has any substrate loaded, unload it.
2.
Cut a piece of self-adhesive vinyl white gloss 15 × 50 mm (0.6 × 2 in) in size.
3.
Stick it to the platen as shown.
4.
Load the substrate that you want to check.
5.
Open your RIP software.
6.
Download the test file from inside the printer: http://printerIP/hp/device/webAccess/images/
Ink_trespassing_check.pdf, where printerIP is the IP address of your printer.
7.
Print the test file using the number of passes and substrate preset that you intend to use in future with
this substrate (or a similar profile in terms of ink limit).
8.
Unload the substrate.
9.
Remove the strip of self-adhesive vinyl from the platen.
10.
Look at the self-adhesive vinyl you have taken from the platen.
