Seven treatment before printing graphic

UV machine easy to operate and provide customers with more print
features, such as relief, white, of course, these features also need to look at
the picture in order to achieve special treatment.
Next, find the menu bar of the "image", select "Adjust" inside the "Levels"
dialog box appears, drag the slider to adjust the Input Levels gloomy picture
of the degree (see pictures when you drag, the more black this is the place
where representatives of white ink to print, the more shallow the place
where white ink printing on behalf of the less), according to their own needs
after adjustment slider press OK.

Relief map production
Relief is relying stacked up white ink, white ink piled higher the more
obvious. The machine is to determine how much white ink in which place
should be sprayed according to the color shades. So, what part of the print
product needs relief, we can be achieved by mapping. In the following
image processing software Adobe Photoshop CS6 example picture image
processing.


1 overall relief
Opened with Adobe Photoshop CS6 need to deal with the picture, then click
the image menu bar, find patterns, to CMYK mode; then find the menu bar
of the "image", select "Adjust" inside "to the color" pictures to color.






Finally, do a picture of another saved as TIFF format

2 partial relief
Partial relief, meaning the image is to highlight a particular part. For
example, the following example highlights the hat to be part of.

Opened with Adobe Photoshop CS6 need to deal with the picture, click on
the image menu bar, find patterns, to CMYK mode, then use the Cutout tool
to pull out of the hat portion (generally using a pen matting), will be plucked
out of the "hat" constituency change layer, then turn off the other layers,
select the hat layer. Then find the menu bar of the "image", select "Adjust"
inside "to the color" pictures to color.

33























White map production
White figure, meaning that a layer of white ink base map. For example, to
print a transparent shell phone, because the bottom is transparent, color
pictures, then just print out the effect is not very satisfactory. To obtain
more satisfactory results, this time you need to hit a white background.

the selection, and then choose Fill, choose black content of the dialog box,
then OK.

Guides
As the front of the head has the installation of UV light, so the need to
reserve the position lights installed, you need to print the picture on the
left and in 5CM separated from the left edge plus a black reference line,
otherwise the drawing may be printed in the leftmost there 5CM width is
not illuminated dry. So, before printing software to print the file to import,
in addition to the need to carry out some simple image processing. The
following image processing with Adobe Photoshop CS6-color image
processing software as an example (Figure relief and white figure also need
such treatment).
1 Open Adobe Photoshop CS6, open the image file you want to print

3 Modify the canvas, select the menu bar of the "image", open the "Canvas

About care ironing boards
Asked ironing boards determine the position of the platform

Users can make a plate-size clothing care wireframes (I asked board size
clothing is 41 * 62CM, small board size clothing care is 28 * 38CM), then
print it directly on the platform, attention SpringShine RIP software the
print width is centered position, height is 0. After printing out the wireframe
based on the location of the platform can determine the location of the prop
ironing boards.


Care clothing plate fixed on the platform
OK good care clothing plate position on the platform after printing, you can
use double-sided adhesive on the back of good care ironing boards, and
then align the position of the platform frame and a little hand pressure being

(4) split nozzle cleaning: Please visit our website to watch a video, or a
phone call to find out about our services to obtain guidance.


Tips: If the machine is not a long time, as long vacation, it is necessary to
protect the work ahead of nozzle: clean the nozzles in the ink, and marked
moisturizer, so that we can protect well heads. After the holidays, the first
moisturizer with cleaning fluid to clean, and then loaded the ink can be.

3. Periodic lubrication on Mexican trucks guides and sliders
Each week, check the ink car guides and there is no accumulation of dirt
on the slider or dust, if there should be wiped clean with a rag, and then re-

Ten Troubleshooting
2 When printer, dislocation lights, the computer prompts "Media exhausted
or not installed correctly", or "jam."


Common mistakes include: dislocation, no ink, waste ink full, routine errors,
ink quit, blur, color cast, not printed.



1 when the printer is printing out of ink lights, the computer prompts "Ink
Out" or "ink cartridge can not be recognized." As shown:

(1) Cause: Tablet will not move to the initial position to start printing.
Solution: Move the innermost flat, then press the "reset" button.

(2) Failure Cause: Dirty Mexican trucks guides
Solution: Clean the guide rod, and add oil.

(3) When the printer to print, dislocation and lack of ink lamp lights
alternately, slow flashing, the computer prompts the "Service Request:
Printer parts are approaching the deadline."












Cause: Record on the motherboard where the value of the waste ink is full.










52







Open the back cover







Replace the corresponding chip

Solution: Discard the waste ink waste ink bottle with a random cleared
software to initialize the value of the waste ink. Cleared as follows:
Opened the first machine (if the error is not hell), data cable to connect
the machine to a computer, and then use the software to be cleared is
cleared.

lubricating, use alcohol to clean the grating belt.



Right side 5. Printed printed matter about 5CM ink has quit.
(1) Cause: Figure 5CM do not add the reference line.
Solution: Before printing has been done to confirm the reference line.



6. Printed items is very vague.
Reasons (1) failure: printed matter the distance between the nozzle is too
high.
Solution: Before printing the print nozzles confirm good distance
between objects.

(2) Failure Cause: The picture is not clear enough for printing
Solution: Print high-definition map.

7 items printed color cast.
(1) Failure Cause: out of ink or disconnected.
Solution: Well, then print a nozzle check.

(2) Cause: ICC curve unselected right.
Solution: Select the correct ICC profile.

(3) Failure Cause: The computer virus.

Eleven machine transport
considerations
* Do not upside down or tilted transport

* Do not lift platform parts

* Keep the ink out before transport to avoid ink leakage
accidentally during transport

* Please ink tube wrapped in bags, place the ink leaks (if
necessary To Ink ink empty)

* Mexican trucks must be in the original location, and can not
be removed manually

* Two or more of lifting machines
