Flatbed Operation Loading Material Loading Material Select the material from the rack behind the Arizona (Other materials are found in the storage through the door). Wearing gloves (to stop any finger marks from appearing). Pull the board over your head if possible and place it on to the print bed. Masking Areas Masking areas of the vacuum holes are useful to keep the pressure of the vacuum on the board. We also use masking tape to help the board stay flat on the bed. If you only need to use a small section of the material, you can leave the film on partially. Simply score the film off of the section you'd like to print on. This helps keep your remaining section of material clean of any dust and marks.Vacuum Areas Introduction The overlay sheet on the printer table creates a vacuum field, which is divided into zones bymagnetic strips on the underside. When the printer is shipped, the vacuum zones are configuredto support common metric or imperial media sizes. The zones are installed at the factory,according to operator preference when the printer is ordered. The purpose of the vacuum zonesis to reduce the preprint setup time by reducing the need to mask the open area on the vacuumtable when printing on the most common-size media. The printer ships with a vacuum fieldconfigured to support either metric or imperial size media.For the Océ Arizona 600 Series GT vacuum control valve handles are used to manage thesezones. The printer has five control valves that determine the zones that are active when the tablevacuum pump is on. Zone 1 area is always active, and the five valves control zones 2 through 6.The vacuum zones are open when the valve handles are vertical. Purpose The vacuum system holds the media in place. The zones described in this section are arranged toaccommodate common media dimensions. Metric Vacuum Zones NOTE THIS IS FROM FACTORY AND OUR PRINTER IS DIFFERENT The following shows the locations and media dimensions associated with the factory-set metricvacuum zones. The name of the zone indicates which vacuum handle controls that zone (except 1as that zone is always on).• Vacuum zone 1 = 600 x 800 mm• Vacuum zone 2 = 700 x 1000 mm• Vacuum zone 3 = 800 x 1200 mm• Vacuum zone 4 = 1000 x 1400 mm• Vacuum zone 5 = 1000 x 2100mm• Vacuum zone 6 = 1250 x 2500mmThe metric configuration is designed such that zone 6 can be reconfigured by a servicerepresentative from the 2.5m x 1.25m area size to 4'x8'.Measuring the Head Height To measure the thickness of the material choose the guage from the shadow board. Take it to the material, and press ON. Twist the cog on top to loosen the gauge slider. Fit the material into the gauge and the screen will display the thickness in millimetres. Once you select to print a job, the pop-up screen will appear with the option to input your head height. Depending on the material, the normal height should be 0.5mm higher than the thickness of the material. The higher the head the print will have a lower quality of print finish. Printing a Nozzle Check To begin a nozzle check on the flat bed, pick your material and size (big enough for the test size 1100x110mm). Choose nozzle test on the top right of the screen. Choose the flatbed option on job parameters 'type' so it looks like below. Once your material is secure on the bed, hit print and start.Printing Rulers Operating Panel - General Usage Viewing Jobs When selecting a job in Active Jobs List (6) or Inactive jobs (8) it will display the artwork in the job Placement Preview (7) Viewing Print Layers Position Jobs To position a job- use the offsets panel on the right-hand side under the preview. Starting from the bottom left of the artwork you can select the horizontal and vertical offset. This is based on setting a board on the bed at 0x0mm based on the ruler position printed on the bed. Tip: Print your job closest to the print head in case of print issues you can save the rest of the board Creating Batch Jobs Sequential Collated Printing a Nozzle Check Select Nozzle Check at the top right of the page (5) This loads the pattern to print a nozzle check. Select if you'd like to print on the roll or on the bed (9) and then hit print. Pausing Jobs Select Hold to pause a job.
