Ink-jet Printer Installation & Testing
Photo1
1、Unpacking: open the package and move out print head, host machine, suspension pad etc.
2、Suspension Pad Installation: 1) fix pads into triangle stands with same height. 2) adjust the three pads
so as to keep the triangle stand in vertically. 3) fasten the three screw nuts with the spanner.
3、Ink tank installation: 1) Put small steel pipes into large ones and put large steel pipes into triangle
stands, after adjusted the height, fasten the star like screw.2) Put the two-hole aluminum stand in
profile of ink tank system into small steel pipe, and then fasten by star like screw.
4、Host Machine Installation: Put the two-hole aluminum stand in profile of host machine into small steel
pipe, and then fasten by star like screw.
5、Print head Installation: 1) put the aluminum stick into the two-hole aluminum stand, and fastened by
star like screw. 2) Screw the print head on aluminum stick. 3) connect one side of ink tube to filter and
the other side to ink inlet.

Install & Test
6、Photoelectric Sensor Installation: 1. Screw the photoelectric clip on the print head stand. 2. screw the
photoelectric sensor on the clip or other position as request, or use different types of sensor. When
using solvent-base inks, the sensor shall be fixed in front of print head.
7、Encoder Installation: If the production line is not in constant velocity, it must be equipped with
encoder.
8、Power connection: connect AC adapter to suitable AC power. Connect DC to the socket behind of
main machine.
9、Printing Test: 1. Put the ink cartridge into the ink system in correct position. 2. Remove the cap of the
printhead, and squeeze the ink cartridge to drain out the air and cleaner until no bubbles. 3. Clean
up the surface by blotting-paper. 4. Tested by blank papers(with more details see page 26).
10、Product moving position: the speed of production line shall be slower than the speed of printing. A
guide plate can be installed to receive the exactly position of product which has passed the print
head. In principal, the distance between product and print head more closer, the printing result will
be better.
11、Production Line adjustment: more details see page10.

Installation manual of print head and ink system
1. When performing sideward print, the lowest print hole inside the print head should be 10mm higher than
the ink cartridge. This position creates the best ink level difference and is also the design standard on
which we fix the support based. The safety area is within 10mm. When the print head placed downward
exceeds 10mm from standard position, the bottom print hole inside the print head will spill the ink firstly
which will cause the bottom part of the print character can not be printed out or even no ink dots can spill
out. When the print head moves upward exceeds 10mm from standard position, it will leads to
non-continuous ink supply. It requires to press the ink cartridge continuously to guarantee the print quality.
Below is the installation guide for reference
2. When performing downward print, the bottom of the print head system should be 10mm higher than the
top of the ink cartridge. This position creates the best ink level difference and is also the design standard
on which we fix the support based. The safety area is within 10mm. When the print head placed downward
exceeds 10mm from standard position, the bottom print hole inside the print head will spill the ink firstly
which will cause the bottom part of the print character can not be printed out or even no ink dots can spill
out. When the print head moves upward exceeds 10mm from standard position, it will leads to
non-continuous ink supply. It requires to press the ink cartridge continuously to guarantee the print quality.

3. When performing upward print, the top of the print head system should be parallel to the top of the ink
cartridge. This position creates the best ink level difference and is also the design standard on which we fix
the support based. The safety area is within 5mm. When the print head placed downward exceeds 5mm
from standard position, the print hole inside the print head will spill the ink which will cause the character
can not be printed out or even no ink dots can spill out. When the print head moves upward exceeds 5mm
higher from standard position, it will leads to non-continuous ink supply. It requires to press the ink
cartridge continuously to guarantee the print quality.

Switch on/off
!Switch on：
Checked up the power connection status before switch on. After switch on, it will enter into the operation
system within 15 seconds. Remove the print head cap and press PRINT key to start printing when using
oil-based inks.
When using solvent-base inks, please purged print head and drained out the dry-inks by blotting-paper.
After that, test the printing result by a blank paper.(more details see page24)
The procedure for using solvent-base inks: purge-squeeze-clean-test.
!Switch off：
Press the power button off and cover up the print head cap.
Note: Before switch off, ensured the print head under normal condition.
It is forbidden to purge the print head gap before or after switch off! Just need to seal it by print
head cap!

1.Printhead management
Click this button will open the interface of print head management. You can set the value of idle-jet
and the continual serial no on this page.
A. Idle-jet
!If you choose non-porous ink system, in order to prevent the ink on the surface of the print head
becoming dry out which will cause illegible printing result you may need to start idle-jet printing
function according to the chosen ink type, temperature, moisture and air flow rate to set the interval
and number of columns for idle-jet printing. Recommend idle-jet printing interval is 10 seconds and
number of columns for idle-jet printing is 10. (if the air flow rate is fast or the temperature is high the
number of columns for idle-jet printing need to be 20 or more.)
It is not necessary to use idle-jet printing in porous system. But if in the environment with a large number of
dust, use idle-jet can be used for dust-protection.
B. Continue serial No
The serial no will change automatically when the print times changes. When you activate this function, the
system will record the current serial no for the text no matter when power off or print with the other files, it
will not back to the initial value.

Change "Print speed ,print delay, print direction, horizon bold, quantity of files you want to print, interval of
each file you choose to print and whether to operate with synchronizer.
Print head parameter
Adjust print speed and print delay according to the speed of production line, the slower the print speed the
shorter print delay is. After sensed by Photoelectric sensor, the print time will be reduced.-In about a few
milliseconds.
1. Print content
Change the horizontal width of print content that is to change the horizontal bold times. Change the the
quantity of file that you want to print on the product and interval between each current editing file.
7、Bold
This function enable you to adjust the horizontal width of the print content that is to change the horizontal
bold times, print files numbers, interval between each of the print images and print direction of the print
content.
3. How to choose a photoelectrical sensor
In order to print in the exact position and prevent from error of printing, you are recommended to

Operation
choose a photoelectric sensor according to the size and color of the product and speed of production line
4.How to choose an encoder
If you want to prevent from unstable length and definition of the text printed out due to unstable
production line speed, you may need to choose an encoder. Also if you need to print in each fixed
length(such as print per meter on the cable) or high identification rate is needed when printing you need to
choose an encoder.

5. File association
In certain circumstance, there will be requirement for print several files together after sensed by
the sensor. Then you should tick in the File List option, and click setting to enter the file selection
int interface as pic below.
