The edge holders

The edge holders are designed to prevent the edges of the substrate from rising while printing is in progress.
They are recommended for textile and double-sided printing (even if the front panel does not suggest them),
and are not normally necessary in other situations. They can be used with the platen or with the ink collector.
When not in use, they should be stored inside the printer, to the left and right respectively, to avoid substrate
jams. It is also a good idea to store the edge holders when no substrate is loaded, in case you later forget and
leave them installed by mistake.

NOTE:

The edge holders extend 7 mm over the edge of the substrate. You should set a minimum left and

right margin of 7 mm (0.3 in) in the RIP when using edge holders, otherwise the printer could try to print on
the edge holders.

If you choose to use them, you should move them into position when prompted by the front panel (this
prompt appears when the Use edge holders checkbox has been checked). Open the window, place the edge
holders, then close the window.

The edge holders should be placed on the platen so that they slightly overlap the left and right edges of the
substrate. There are marks on the printer to show where to place them.

The edge holders for each printer model are the same, but they are installed in different ways.

WARNING!

Avoid moving parts. Handle fragile parts with care. You are recommended to wear gloves.
