Cleaning the Support Blocks

(FlexJet E Only)

When dust and paper residue will accumulate on the take-up and

feed shaft support blocks, frequent feed shaft jams can occur. Per-

form this procedure when debris inhibits easy rotation of the shaft.
1.

Turn off power to the printer.

2.

Remove the feed shaft and the take-up shaft.

3.

Dampen a lint-free cloth with isopropyl (pharmacy) alcohol

and gently wipe the plastic support blocks until accumulated

residue is removed.

4.

Apply a light coating of grease to the plastic feed shaft sup-

port block. White Lithium grease is supplied with the printer.

3-in-1

brand oil is also a very good lubricant for the feed

block.

5.

Wipe down both ends of the feed and take-up shafts before

reinstalling them.

Size Calibration

Over time, the printer may require calibration to account for normal

wear. Calibration adjusts the output to match design intent.

Prepare the Printer (See the Operation chapter)

1.

Load the printer with, at minimum, 46-in wide paper.

2.

Install ink cartridges.

3. Using the Arrow keys, move the carriage so that the carriage

notch is positioned about 1 inch from the right edge of the paper.

4.

Press the Set Origin key to put the printer in START (green

light) mode.

Never touch the take-up

key or flanged coupling

while they are rotating.

Serious personal injury could

result. Turn power off first.

Caution

The Scale command does not

effect calibration values.
