4-6. Printing 

 CAUTION 

Ensure there is adequate space left for safe working. The Platen moves forward while 
operating. 

Do not handle the platen while printing. If your hand gets caught between the platen or the 
T-shirt tray and the covers, injury may result. 

Do not move the Platen by hand. 
The Printer may be mechanically and electrically damaged. 

Do not put your hands inside the covers while the printer’s power is turned on, otherwise 
your hands may touch against moving parts and this may result in injury. 

4-6-1. Making One Print 

(1)  Make sure the Print Button has been turned on, which indicates your printer has received the print 

data successfully.   

<Note> 
Your printer cannot receive a print data when printing, head cleaning, or in other menus. Do not 
send data while the Printer is operating, or it may not be received correctly.   

(2)  Make sure that the Platen is ejected. If not, press the Platen Button. 
(3)  Confirm the Job Comment on the Display shows the correct print job details. 
(4)  Press the Print Button to start printing operation 

When the printing is completed, the Platen is ejected and an audible indication is given. 
If printing is to be stopped before it is finished the Stop button can be used. 

<Note> 

By pressing the Print Button, your printer automatically starts cleaning the Print Head every 24 

prints (default) or every numbers of prints you have set (see "7-2-5. Changing the Auto Head 

Cleaning Setting”), or after your printer has not been used for

more than two hours. In this case, 

wait until the cleaning completes (takes about 20 seconds), and then printing will automatically 

start. 

Keep away from the moving platen. 

If the Platen is not at the appropriate position when the Print Button is pressed, it automatically 

adjusts the position to start printing. Press the Print Button again to start printing after the Platen 

is available 

Do not open unlock or open the Cover during printing. If you do the power is turned off for safety 

reasons.
