Set an Origin
1. Ensure that cartridges are installed in the carriage stall(s). (See
Guidelines for Installing a Cartridge earlier in this chapter.)
2. Turn on the power. After a brief pause, the carriage will glide to
the left end plate, then return to the Service Station. When fin-
ished, the OK light turns red and the Square light turns green.
3. Press the Left Arrow key to position the carriage so that the tip of
the white marker is over the desired starting point of the plot.
4. Press the Set Origin key. The OK light will turn green. The
printer is ready to plot.
Sending Plot Files
Send plot files to the printer using FlexPlot or design software. Make
sure the power is on and paper is loaded as described above. Also,
be sure that a new origin is set with the Set Origin keypad button
and that the printer is in Start mode (green light). From FlexPlot*:
1.
Choose input file type and location then double click on the file.
2. Conversion will occur and the Send to Queue button is acti-
vated. Press this button to add the file to the queue.
3. Repeat steps 1 to 2 until the all files are queued then press Send.
Pausing a Marker Plot
1. Pause a plot by pressing the Start/Stop key.
2. The OK light will change from green to red. The printer will finish
printing the current scan, then pause.
3. Once printing stops, use the keypad keys to move the carriage,
paper, and take-up shaft. When Start/Stop is pressed again (OK
light turns green) printing will start again where it left off.
Do not pull paper tight
between the drive shaft
and the take-up shaft while
printing is paused. Do not turn the
feed roll or take-up roll by hand
while printing is paused.
Caution
* See the FlexPlot User Guide or
your design application user guide
for information on how to send
files to the printer.
Insert Rear Dancer Bar
(2H+ FJE Models Only)
1. FJE models with two or more printheads and the high speed
printing kit require that a heavy dancer bar is inserted in the
rear dancer bar channel (see paper path in Feeding Paper).
2. Take the heavy dancer bar (painted black on some models) and
insert the ends into the notches in the stand legs on the back of
the machine as shown in the image below.
3. Use a hand on the rear rolling bar to slow rotation as the dancer
bar slides into the channel and forms a rear paper loop.
