Setting the Regular Wiping Operation during a Printing Operation
When the set number of times scanning is performed has been reached during a printing operation, a wiping
operation is performed automatically to prevent ink dew condensation on the nozzle face.
In the following cases, ink splashing, ink dripping or nozzle missing may occur during a printing operation.
It is recommended that the regular wiping operation be set to always maintain a good printing state.
• When the print heater has been set at a high temperature
• When a relatively large value (high density, two coats of ink, etc.) has been set to the amount of ejected ink
The cause of the ink splashing, ink dripping or nozzle missing is that the ink printed immediately after ink ejection
is heated by the print heater, which causes evaporated solvent to condense on the nozzle face.
In addition, the larger the difference between the set temperature of the print heater and the ambient temperature
is, the more easily the evaporated solvent can condense.
