The structure of feed and take up system consists of 5 components. They are: feed roller
assembly, main roller assembly, extension and tightening roller assembly, transmitting-turning
roller assembly, take up roller assembly. It shows in the following pictures:
15
The function of feed roller assembly: supporting the media and ensure the media will run without
resistance and will not flee away.
The function of main roller subassembly: providing drive for material loading and feeding media
into the printing flat roof.
The function of extension roller subassembly: extends media, and ensure that the input and output
media is level and parallel.
The function of transferring roller: The transition of cloth material is easy for even material
receiving.
The function of material receiving roller: Supporting and furling the printed cloth material and
supply the drive to receive material.
5.2. Principles of Feed and Take up performance
The functions of feed and take up system are achieved by the running of motor. And it is controlled by
photoelectric switch. Its principles are:
While feeding, the photoelectric switch sends a signal if it senses no media, then, the motor runs to
feed till the photoelectric switch senses the media. Then, the motor stops.
While taking up, the photoelectric switch sends another signal if it senses media, then, the motor
runs to take up till photoelectric switch senses no media. Then, the motor stops
The step of media on the printing flat is achieved by the running of the wheels, which is controlled
16
by software.
. Installation Requirements
1. Preparation before Installation
1.1 Preparation of the site
Customers have the responsibility to follow all the instructions of installation and put them into
implementation during the operation of machines.
If they dont do so, the machines probably could not function properly and the consequent revision may
incur some costs.
1.2. The working region

shown as follows. What should be especially pointed out is that the users should ensure the safety of
operators working in this area.
The working area measures 7.54 m in length, 4 m in width and 3 m in the height of the floor.
picture 1: the schematic plan of the working region around MYJET-3216 ink jet plotter(unit: mm)
1.3. Requirements for Environment
The ink jet plotter should be away from the seaming equipment (cloth seaming machine) or other radio
frequency source. The floor is easy to clean and free of dust and static electricity. Fitment of neutral
17
gray color and pure white lighting such as daylight lamp should be used as much as possible in order to
help operators and users distinguish the color accurately.
The ink jet plotter should be installed in a clean and dust free environment of which the temperature
and relative humidity are controlled in the following range:
Altitude: used under the altitude of 1000 meters.
Temperature: 18 to 28 degrees centigrade.
Relative humidity: 40% to 60%
1.4. Requirements for the Floor
The materials of the floor in the working region should guarantee the safe and even weight dispersion of
the system. During the installation, the system should maintain accuracy and precision in order to ensure
that printing head moves horizontally in a correct way and avoid gliding and bending.
The materials of the floor in the working region should be free of static electricity and dust. If necessary,
clean ceramic tiles, polished cement or anti-electricity carpet could be paved in the working region before
the ink jet plotter is installed.
1.5. Requirements for Load bearing
The net weight of X3216A ink jet plotter is 540 kgs and the biggest coil stock usually adds up 50 kgs.
It is suggested to install MYJET printer on four steel plates of 20 centimeters in diameter each or on
four steel plates with an area of over 200*200mm and a thickness of over 8 mm each.
1.6. Requirements for Space Reservation

1.1. Feed and take up order and method of Box Machines
Make a good preparation for the media to print

Put a roll of media on the roller, make the media stay
middle and the head of the media towards the printer.
Draw sides of the head of the material, and let the
material unfolded for about 2 meters. Then, let the
unfolded material round the main roller (while printing
adhesive vinyl, add impaction roller on the main
roller, and the material runs between the main roller
and the impaction roller ). The head of the material is
down, then round the loading extension roller from the
bottom up and the head of the material is upward.
Before the material comes onto the printing platform,

loosen the extension assembly and let the material
27
come onto the printing platform. Then, draw the material gently to make the length of the material 3
meters longer than that of the platform
(while drawing, one should do it slowly
and not draw the extension roller out of
the rack). Then, press and tighten the
impction assembly.
Adjust the material loaded right now,
and make sure the extension surface of
the material is flat, the cylindric material
is plain, and the left and right edges of
the material are on the same plane. And
try to make sure the printing material is
at the center of the printing platform.
Demount the take-up roller, and draw
out the baffle whoes end have no gear.
Then, put on the material from the end
which has no gear, then, install the
baffle demounted right now. At last install the take up roller on the printer and cover the paper roller
on the left and right baffle tightly.
Let the material drawed in the step 3 round the take up extension roller from the bottom up and the
head of the material is up, then, round the transforming roller from the top down and the head of
the material is down. At last, round on the take up paper roller from the bottom up.
while rounding on the paper roller, please conglutinate the head of the material on the paper roller.
After doing this, tauten the material and make sure that the extension surface of the material is flat,
and the left and right edges of the material are on the same plane.
Adjust the whole material and make sure the extension surface of the material is flat and the left
and right edges of the material are on the same plane. At last, let the four fixing circles for feeding
roller lean against the edge of the cylindric material and tighten it. Then, lock the baffle of the take
up roller. Till now, the material installing is finished.
Make a choice to heat or not, according to different media. Generally it is suggested that

1.2.1. Preparation before Power-on
check if the tray for protecting printheads is put down or not.

Check if there is some other things on the printing platform, such as screw, tool or oddment. Clean
the guide rail and daub the oil on it. In addition, daub oil on the guide rail to keep the rail smooth
while the machine is working.
Check if the stick for holding materials is clean or not. If it is not clean, please use special solvent
to wash it. While doing this, pleae set the material feeding value on the software at the same time.
Then, let the stick for holding materials run atuomatically. After wahsing it, please dry the solovent
on the stick by using air gun.
Check if all the switches are turned off.
Check if the ink in the main ink tank is enough or not and the rubbish ink is cleared away on time or
not.
28
Check the temperature 20-28and humidity in the room40%-60%
1.2.2. Add Ink
Add ink sequentially from left to right into the left case in blackblueredand yellow turn..
Insert the four tubes into their corresponding bottles to supply ink.
You can choose to use the air pressure system to add ink atuomatically if the air pressure system
is install on the machine. Please turn off the voltage of the printhead by several times so as not to let
the air come into the tube because the ink cannot come into the subsidiary ink bottle.
1.2.3. Operation Process of Power on
Demount the printhead soleplate for keeping wet.

First, turn on the computer, then the general power of the printer. Pull up the emergency button,
then, turn on the printhead voltage switch, platform fan switch, feed motr switch, cold wind switch
and heating switch one by one.
At last, open the software.
1.4. Preparations after power on and before printing
1.Open the printing software, and click back home button to make the carriage back to the zero
position. After repostion, the printhead will do flash printing automatically to set up the normal
connection between the machine and the software.
Notes: flash printing can be inter-changed. Flash or not Flash can be choosed. A piece pf paper can be
put under the printhead to check whether it is flashing or not.
Click cleaning button to clean the printhead.
If the printer has the air-pressure system, printhead can be cleaned with the air-pressure. Then, if
vacuum is used, the cleaning effect will be better.
2. Necessary parameter setting in the printing software

Set up the frequency, times and mode of automatic cleaning, and the frequency of flash printing;
Set up the 4-color-bar or 6-color-bar to be printed in the margin of the material;
Set up the distance of the white margins;
After the parameter is set up, print out the picture of the print head state, the excursion, and the
ascensive excursion. Adjust the print head and the excursion value to be the best state;
Before the formal printing, print out a small picture with multi-passes. The advantage is that
sometimesthe print head can be warmed up, consequently adding the fluency of the ink.
If heat it up after it is opened, print out 1 meter to test its difference from the actual one in order to
avoid the wrong dimension. The flexibility of different materials in different temperatures is a little
different.
1.5. The Printing control Process
Absorb the ink by using the software. If the effect is poor, please improve the height of the
absorbing board to be reasonable or remove the absorbing head and directly absorbs the print
29
head;
If the ink jetprinter has a air pressure system, the print head can be cleaned with the positive
pressure, and then with thecleaner. The effect is better.
Click the button for cloth test in the function table; the carriage will test automatically;
Enact the location of the carriage and material. I.e., the white margin
According to the test bar, please adjust the relative scientific position of each print head with a
screwdriver(connect the head to the end and make them mutually parallel)
Further adjust each print head until they are in the best condition by using the software test chart,
and meanwhile observe the test chart to make sure no the abnormal phenomenon such as ink
breaking and ink hanging appear in the printing process. And then it is allowed to print the picture
normally.
1.5.1. Notices in the printing process
After one picture is printed out, the print head should be cleaned in time; Move around the machine
to examine the work state in the normal printing process to make sure the heating temperature is
normal and there is no impurity on the surface of the machine; Listen carefully to confirm whether
there is any abnormal sound in the printing process. If there is, the machine must be paused to
check out the reason; Smell by ones nose to make sure if there is any peculiar smell. If there is,
the machine must be paused to check out the reason;
Other user from the LAN is prohibited to visit or share in the resource in the printing process in
order to interfere in the printing unnecessarily;
1.6. Load material
After printing, there are two ways to load the material:

Load the material with the roller
Take down the take-up roller and loosen the lock knob of the take-up roller baffle. Then, reel
off the end of the baffle and take-up roller which have no gear.
Install the baffle
Install the take-up roller on the printer
Load the material only
Loosen the baffle of the take-up roller to finish loading the material. Lock the knob and pull the
material to load directly.
1.6.1. Notice while feeding and loading the material
1. The material should be flat. One should adjust it timely if the movement excursion occurs while
printing.
2. Please pay attention to the material feeding to check if it is normal or not and the photoelectricity
switch is ok or not.
3. While installing the material, it should be put at the cetre of the paper holding stick. And the roller fo
the material should be too big for fear that the material is too heavy and the feeding is not smooth. In
addition, too big material roller may let the motor have too heavy burthen and affect the normal printing
4. If adding and connecting material is needed, please stick them on the ground and sticking them on
30
the printer is not allowed. While printing, please make sure the pinch roller cannot run into the
connected part.
5. Please dont lift the handle bar while printing.
6. Before loading, please make sure the ink has been dry. Then, cut the media on the printer. But
please be careful, dont injure the machine and your finger.
7. After printing, youd better cover it with membrane before rolling in order not to damage the picutre by
the wet ink. Besides, dont fold the pictures.
1.7. Turn off
1. Press the emergency switch

2. Turn off the switch of the voltage of the printhead, HV switch.
3. Then, turn off the turn off the heating switch, wind absorbing switch and air-dry switch
4. At last, turn off the main power switch and then turn off the computer.
1.7.1. The task after turning off the machine
Cleaning
Wash the carriage pedestal, printhead and the ink stain on the board by using solvent.
Rave about the rubbish ink and scrub the ink stain on the machine.
Check the subsidiary ink tank to make it airproof.
Maintenance
One should do something for protecting the printheads after printing. Put the three-layers non-
woven and proper quantity of solvent into the cleaning tray. Then, buckle the cleaning tray on
the printhead pedestal. Tighten the screw of cleaning tray, then, inject a certain quantity of
solvent (about 2-3 mm)
Use oil to protect the linear guide rail and some other main movement parts.
The clearance and back up of hard disk

Before turning off the computer, back up the quired documents, please delete the temporary
and usless documents in time.
Clean up the disk signs, search and eliminate the virus.

2.3.2 Warp-revising
In order to improve the printing quality, we need to adjust the following items during
the working time of the printer. They are printhead state, step adjustment, printhead
excursion and color revising and printing trip dispatch. There are related operation
content in the control software. Open the parameter scheme interface and choose the
page layout of dispatch revise while printing. Click the standard button, and the standard
item menu will pop-up.
35
2.3.3. Printhead State
Click printhead state bar, the machine will print out the image as following.
The image can test working states of each nozzle and the adjusted effect of
printhead engine space, the region enlarging effect of the printed pictures are as
the following:
36
The serial No. of the image shows that this part is the image of correlated print
head printed. The each broken line shows the jet image of the first muzzle for each
print head. The isometry status that each broken line be apart from border lines
should be as the part that circled in the picture, reflects the orientation state of print
head engine, if they have not the same space, we need to adjust the print head
engine for the scheme of print head compose printing; for the print head
independent printing ,we need to adjust the Y direction chromatically dispatch
according to the practical difference, this content will be explained in the following
revise color excursion process.
2.3.4. Step adjustment
Different printing mode may have

different step advance, which lie on the
error between Y axes movement
parameter and definite positive value of
the system and the mechanical
differences. Therefore, step value in each
mode normally should be adjusted
separately. Click step adjustment in test
menu to show the submenu in each
printing mode. Then, select the printing
mode, which needs to be adjusted, to adjust the picture-printing.
Test printing length of step image in practical printing, and fill the length into the corresponding
digital frame of printing mode in practical test.
37
2.3.5. Revise color excursion
Printers need to knot all the printing content tighter when printing, which need to adjust the
revise color excursion value of each print head. The excursion value are often different in
different printing direction, so can de revised according to direction.
Click the menu item of printing revise color excursion, and print corresponded revised
image , printing image will compose more revised unit. The each unit can correspond to
the revise parameter of each print head according to the color and the direction that mark
the printing direction and the print head group No.
Image 8
We can see the excursion of print head correspond direction when adjusting, the method
of reading is as following, there are tens digit and entries digit reading area. There are
correspond digital marked ,black line is datum line, find the best superposition line that the
color line and basic line that tens digit and entries digit corresponded, and add the figure
that the two line show and get the excursion value. In order to facilitate reading, when
there is the excursion value no less than 10 in the image, firstly, correct the excursion of
tens digit, then print again to correct the entries digit, but in general condition, as system
exist standard excursion parameter of corresponded machine. As excursion parameter is
less than 10, so once correct can make all the revise color excursion value, make the
value add the original excursion parameter and fill into the correspond print excursion
parameter table which shows in the following.
Image 9
The print image also can reflect the excursion of print head in Y direction, as the
grades line circled in the image.
38
Image 10
When the current printing form is print head combination, Y direction warp
revise can be performed, and other scheme form can be adjusted only by
mechanical method .The method of reading warp value is choose the level line
sect that superpose datum line well, and get a warp value by making the entries
digit that this line corresponding multiply constant 48, then fill the wrap value in the
correspond Y direction warp figure frame. Of course ,users can make a slight
adjust within 48 figure.
2.3.6. Trip dispatch
We need to correct the trip dispatch for different speed as different printing
speed will brought definite position difference. Select the trip dispatch of
correspond speed from printing test menu, and then the printer will output the
revise image as following .
Image 11
The method of reading trip dispatch is same as the revise color excursion, that is,
firstly read the warp of tens digit ,and then the entries . Make the warp value add
the figure in the original software trip dispatch frame and fill the result in the figure
frame of correspond speed.
Image 12
In order to explain the method of reading, we make a local explain about the
printing
image of trip warp shown as image 11.
39
Image 13
The black block in the picture is not neat with the uprightness border while printing.
The black block means the exist of trip dispatch .Compared the superposition state
of each reading line and datum line, we can found line three sect are in good match
with datum line, so the new trip dispatch will get by add the trip dispatch of current
printing speed to line-3.
2.4. Other operation and explanation
There are also resume standard value button in software revise page ,as shown in image
10, the operation resume all the current step advance parameter and revise excursion
parameter to the original parameter when leave factory, so we should be careful to avoid
wrong operation.

degrees of maintenance in details. We advise you to write down these rules, paste them to the printer
or prominent places nearby.
54
2. Daily Maintenance
While not in use

1. Clean the printheads by the air pressure system, and then, clean the soleplate of the printheads,
then, power off.
2. Fold several levels of the non-woven cloth and put them on the plate which the printhead dipped in. If
the non-woven is not too much, the sponge is recommended. This can save money and the elasticity of
the sponge is better than that of the non-woven.
3. If non-woven is used, please fold more.
4. Put enough membrane on the non-woven or sponge, which let the membrane not damaged easily
and prolongs the lifespan of the cushion.
5. Inject the solvent on the membrane 6. Please dont inject too much
7. Install the printhead soleplate 8. Fix the printhead soleplate

9Check if the soleplate and membrane are in proper position or not
10. Inject 3 mm solvent into the printhead tray.
11. At last fix the membrane
Often examine the cleaning and lubricating condition of the linear guide rail, and lubricate the guide
rail with accepted lube.
Inject oil on the ball bearing of the sliding set on the guide rail periodically with appointed grease
gun and special oil
Examine the ink barrel in the box and check if the ink is enough or not.
Replace the ink filter periodically
Wash the printhead often and wash ink tank and ink amount sensor periodically
Check if the connection axis skids or not and tighten the screws.
Clean the dust on the computer, power source and electronic board periodically

2.2. Maintenance While Printing
Wash the print head before printing. This will make ink jetting fluent. Wash print head immediately
after one frame of image is printed. (Refer to print head's cleaning methods)
When printing, walk around to see the equipment:
There is no particle or dirt on the working platform.
Touch the heating board to make sure that the heating temperature is in normal.( Note: when the
print head is moving, you are not allowed to touch the heating board.)
Listen to it and see whether there are irregular sounds. Stop to check under that circumstance.
Smell. If smoky, stop it and check.
2.3. Maintenance when stopped.
Push down the jerk switch.

Protect the print head (refer to print head maintenance)
Discharge ink in the cleaner.
Clean the equipment (only special PMA liquid can be used)
2.4. Every 8 Hours' maintenance
After the equipment runs for 8 hours, use petroleum based grease to lubricate the guide rail for one
time. Don't refill too much otherwise it may leak below the guide rail.
Use cleaning liquid to clean the surface and interface of the vacuum to guarantee flexible
movements up and down.
2.5 Daily Maintenance
Clean all the small pinch rollers.

Check the waste liquid in the waste barrel and pour out it in time.
2.6. Weekly Maintenance Content

Blow away any dust on the power supply case and the driver with dry compressed air.
2.9. Annual Maintenance

Horizontal inspection on guide rail and printing platform (can contact our company)
Check the equipment thoroughly to see whether the screws are loose.
3. Printhead Maintenance
3.1. Treatment before printhead is installed
Cleaning of solvent in the printhead.

When the equipment leaves factory, the injection cup contains a large quantity of moisture locking
liquid for the purpose of protection. Before installation, it must be cleaned with the ink related
cleaning liquid. Connect a filter between the injector and the inlet tube of the injection cup. Inject
30ml cleaning liquid into the injection cup at first, discharge the moisture locking liquid and then
fulfill the injection cup with cleaning liquid. Leave the injection cup in the water for 5-10 minutes,
and the remaining moisture locking liquid will be totally dissolved. Lastly, wash the injection cup
with about 30ml cleaning liquid. If the line printed is not straight, wash it over with cleaning liquid.
Don't stop until the line is straight. In this way the remained moisture locking liquid is cleared.
Remember when doing this, please choose a considerably sound and clean platform.
Notice:
Keep the operation platform clean
Don't touch the surface or the socket of the platform
Filtrate the injector with the filter.
Surface of the injection cup is not touched.
Distinguish outlet hole from inlet hole
When cleaning liquid is pushed out of injection hole, pressure should not exceed 0.3kg (i.e.
hold the injector with one hand and push the injector with the thumb of the same hand.)
57
3.2. Air Pressure System Introduction
3.2.1. Function Introduction
There will be clogging print head when printing for a long time, which could be solved by vacuum. But if
can not clean out, we can adopt air pressure way to do. (When cleaner is no use and under the
condition of having break line.)
3.2.2. System Introduction
Air Press System consists of Air Pressure Switch, air pump and electromagnetism ralve and vacuum
ink tank.
3.2.3. Operation Guide
Fist install the small cover on the vacuum ink tank, then, press down the red button of the pressure
system to check if all the ink in the printheads flows out or not, which is held within 5 seconds.
3.2.4. Notice
Power of the printhead must be turned off before pressing the button.
3.2.5. Wetness of the Printhead Surface
Clean the surface of the printhead in single direction with depurating wet stick softly to form a thin bed
of solvent on the surface of the printheads.
3.2.6. Discharge the Printhead
3.2.6.1. The step of the print head discharge
Turn off the HV power and the main power supply.

Discharge the screws and take out the printheads from carriage. Please be careful, dont let it
collide or fall on the ground.
Inject solvent into the printheads to clean and install the protection board of printheads or
membrane.
58
3.2.6.2. Detach the printhead

Do not hit or fall the print head on ground during the process of installation or discharge.
Before printhead is stored, wash it with cleaning liquid.
The cleaning print head should be set the original protect board or wrapped sealed by the plastic
bag immediately .If need to post, anti-shock packing should be offer.
3.2.7. Common knowledge about printhead maintenance
In normal working condition, turn on the print head flash jet

function in the software. Set the value to be 8.
If clogging cannot be solved under normal cleaning
process, it is better to dismount the injection cup and dip it

in the cleaning liquid.
Before injection cup is dismounted and stored, wash it with
cleaning liquid; wrap it with wiping paper, and store it

sealed. If the injection cup is to be posted, use anti-shock packing.
Carefully and regularly clean the base of the printhead where auto ink sucking machine locates.
3.2.8. Cleaning and maintenance of printhead
3.2.8.1. Changing ink
In principle, only one kind of ink can be used on a machine. If it is necessary to change, it can not
be changed into other chemical solvent ink in case of the damage to the print head.
While changing the ink, wash the printhead with the previous solvent first. Then wash it with the
new solvent compatible with new ink to lessen the residue ink and liquid in it.
3.2.8.2. Washing the print head
If the surface of the print head is so dry that it is clogged, inject some ink into it and wash it with ink
carefully.
If the above mentioned methods still dont work, dismantle the connection tube; add cleaning liquid
directly into the syringe. Then connect the tube and inject ink.
3.2.8.3. Keeping printhead wet
When the printer is not in use, printhead clean salver should be used to keep the printhead wet. Please
also pay attention to the cleanness of the salver. Put non-woven cloth in the salver three to four layers
to ensure the surface of the printhead is clean. Add a little solvent, and then screw the nut on both side
of the salver to assure printhead is in the solvent. If the salver hasnt been cleaned, please use non-
59
woven cloth to mix a little wetness-keeping liquid or solvent instead and wrap well with plastic foil.
3.2.9. Printhead protection while stopping the machine overnight

Turn off the computer and all power supplies.
Put three layers of non-woven cloth on the cleaning tray and add proper solvent.
Carefully cap the tray on the pedestal. Fasten the screws on the cleaning tray.
To prevent ink mix, fill the hole on the back of the ink bottle with a black cap and vacuum the space
between the ink bottle and the print head. Pull out the black cap when use again.
4. Printhead protection when the printer stops for several days
If the printer is not in use for more than 48 hours, the ink in the printhead must be cleared,
otherwise, ink will dry as solvent volatilizes or even impair the nozzle permanently. Treatment is as
follows:
Turn off printer's power supply
Move the printhead to the leftmost cleaning position and put an anti-erosion receptacle below the
injection cup to contain waste liquid.
Aspirate with glass injector or directly pour out ink in the secondary ink tank. Then, wash it
thoroughly with special solvent.
Pull out the ink supply tube (from secondary ink tank) and aspirate 40ml special solvent with glass
injector to clean the print head twice. Don't blow away residual solvent in print head because
solvent inside the printhead can keep it wet.
Discharge the print head bracket, wrap it with the plastic bag and or film.
5. Maintenance of the ink supply system
If the filter is in good condition, seal the plastic connecting tube with adhesive tape to avoid dust
entering.
Filter cleaning: Dismount it and discharge ink. Dip it in the solvent and vibrate it in ultrasonic
cleaning machine for more than half an hour. Then blow in compressed air from the ink hole so as
to discharge wastes. Do it repeatedly until the filter is unobstructed.
6. Choice of ink
The printhead is the brain of the printer. The choice of ink is very important because it will directly affect
the printhead. A bad choice may destroy the whole ink supply system. So choosing ink should be very
serious.

1. Improving printing quality
1.1. How to perform printing with your printhead without breaking a single line?
1.1.1. Choosing suitable ink
Any ink factory or distributor relies on profits to do business continuously. We recommend our ink.
Although the price may be a little higher than the cheapest ink available in the market, the cost is
quite low if it is distributed on each square meter. Poor ink will damage the printhead and break the
line seriously within one month. So the bad image will be printed. Naturally customers will purchase
less ink by poor quality as time goes by.
1.1.2. Protection function design and daily maintenance during printing
Four colors or six colors printing

Make sure that color bar is printed! This can prevent clogging in one or two printhead which cannot
jet ink for a long time. What is more, color bar enables us to discover which printhead breaks line
easily.
Regular auto ink sucking
Only a few seconds are needed and we can guarantee that no line is broken in printing. "Under the
circumstances that print head are in good condition, the main reason for line breakage is due to ink
cluster on the surface of the print head." Cluster is caused by ink feature, environment
temperature, comparative moisture, ink level of sub-ink bottle, thickness and airtightness of the
tube, resistance to tube wall flow, levelness of print head board and etc.
Set PASS number of the auto cleaning intervals according to the practical situation, the pre-
condition is no line breakage in long image printing
Remember that damage to the print head starts from a small hole. Many operators let the printer
run through to the end of the image printing because they don't care about one or two broken lines.
What they don't know is the injection hole that does not spray ink due to delayed cleaning, affects
neighboring injection holes. "What we must do is to prevent things from happening before they
actually happen!"
At intervals of printing, do not turn off the printer. Keep the print head in the state of flash
jetting.!
During the process of flash jetting, ink consumption is very small (only 2 of that in normal printing).
This keeps the injection hole moist. At the same time, keep the normal print head temperature.
Make sure when printing starts, print head are in best working conditions.
61
When operating Myjet printer: first turn on the computer, then start up the printer and print head
voltage .Choose reset when entering the system.
If the ink jet plotter is turned off, you need to press the key RESET to restart the system. Only in
this way can the print head return to the left side for automatic flash injection. To ensure the proper
function of flash injection, you may use a piece of paper to check whether it works well or not.
Examine jet hole before or during printing:

Before printing, if ink isnt found flowing out of a jet hole, firstly try to suck it out.
The disconnection in the process of printing is usually due to the conglomeration of ink, which
can easily be solved by setting automatic cleaning.
The practice of spraying painting should be stop, when a disconnection occurs. otherwise, the
jet hole would be clogged with the accumulated ink.
If you fail to deal with, please promptly consult the technicians at the suppliers for detailed
information.
Protection after turn off
After the shutdown, immediately cover the print head with the bonnet (equipped with cleaning
solvent and non-woven fabrics), for the sake of preventing the surface of print head from direct
exposure to the open air. If it were not done, the ink would evaporate and the resin in the ink
might clog the jet hole. If print head is found out of order, 2mm of solvent can be injected onto
the bonnet and then cover the cup so that its surface is immersed into solvent till tomorrow.
Notice: If the suck back of ink appears in the process of using print head bonnet, block the air
hole of vacuum ink tank. Then remove the wad when turn on the machine next time .
Cautions regarding repairs

If you need to dismantle the components on the print head. shelf and the direct exposure of
print head to the open air seems unavoidable, you must inject the cleaning liquid onto the
surface of the print head with the needle cylinder, which help slow down the rate of the inks
evaporation. (The cleaning liquid evaporates slowly and there are no solid particles left after
the evaporation).
1.2 Adjust the relative positions between the print head of one color and the print head of other
colors.
For the first adjustment, mechanically adjust the screw and put the test bar in the very position,
Second, run the software to further adjust the print head in a proper position. Then use the
adhesive to fix the screw so that the screw wont be dislocated by vibration.
Prior to daily operation, first print the test bar, and then check whether each jet hole is in good
order and whether the relative position and parallelism of each print head are within the permissible
error range. Then can produce high quality images only when all the requires can reach.
Since the way to inspect and adjust varies from one factory to another, users should be familiar
with this operation and carry out examination and adjustment before starting operation every
morning.
62
1.3 How to solve the problem of the stripe of special color?
The stripe is the result of unevenly distributed ink jetted by many injection cups of the same color.
But for the xaar126, each injection cup regulates its own voltage. The specific method is as follows:
There is another shortcut, which goes this way: 8/12/16 injection cup is unlikely to produce stripe if
it is printed by 4/3/4 pass respectively. The reason is that for all the difference in the injection cup of
the same color, the picture is thoroughly painted by each injection cup. Under such circumstances,
stripe will be invisible as long as every injection hole of the same color works equally. As a matter
of fact, the most efficient is injection cup 12. Using 3 pass can ensure the fast and effective
printing. For 16 injection cups, if every four injection cups are in almost the same state, the effect
will be better if 3 pass is used.
2 Adjust the clearance
To achieve the satisfactory effect, it is necessary to adjust the headstock so that the clearance
between it and the material to be printed, can be reduced to the minimum, 2.5 mm3.5mm (Notice:
material isnt allowed to be touched.)
Adjust the height of the rocker blotter and screw down and fix the screw in order to ensure the good
cleaning effect.
Notice: the shorter the clearance between rocker blotter and injection cup is, the better the cleaning
effect will be.
3 Techniques for using injection cups
Environment
Keep a tidy working environment and make main body free from any dust because in the dirty
environment dust will make its way to major ink pots, minor ink pots, and then injection cups. If
it is the case, the printing effect will be harmed and the service life of an injection cup will be
shortened.
Operation
Operate in accordance with the procedures for the maintenance of injection cup and avoid
the friction between the nozzle and any object because it may make the surface of the
nozzle frosted and broken.
When cleaning the surface of nozzle, we must use the special paper or non-woven fabrics
instead of the tissue paper to clean the surface of injection cup. With untold tiny fibers on
its surface, tissue paper can gain easy access to the nozzle. Additionally, the tiny hairs
that remain on the surface of nozzle probably lead to the clogging and dripping of the ink
and then affect the print quality.
Accessory
Every accessory serves certain purpose and shouldnt be detached at random.
63
Keep intact the primary inkpot and the air filter of the secondary inkpot so that the
particles of various kinds floating in the air can be denied access to the ink. If clogged or
even broken, they should be promptly replaced.
Static
Ink jet plotter should be connected with zero line to prevent the statics effect on the
injection cup.
Maintain a constant temperature in the working environment and ensure that the
temperature ranges from 20 oC to 28 oC because the heat generated by the working
injection cup is mainly carried by the ink and then discharged from the heat sink.
The humidity in the working environment should be within the range of 40%-60%.If it is
too dry, medium will be charged with static, thus affecting the print quality.
Generally, static that exists in the zero line of the equipment, in the particles floating in the
air and in the friction between medium and equipment, together with the leakage of the
equipment, may charge the main body with electricity, which does harm to the major
accessories including injection cup, main board.
Ink
The quality of the ink exerts direct effect on the image quality. The lower price doesnt
amount to the decreasing cost. Instead, the ink of inferior quality is more likely to bring
about the following consequences. For example, injection cup is clogged, printing is
stopped, product is discarded as useless and customers ask for refund because the
product is of poor color quality. Then it may cause considerable waste.
Users are strongly recommended to use the ink supplied by the manufacturer and its
agents on account of the fact that the ink that has been strictly and persistently tested is
helpful to maintaining both the equipment and injection cups.
Maintenance
Maintenance is very important to prolong the working life of the printhead. After turning off
the printer, be sure to put the cleaning solvent on the surface of injection cup and cover
the nozzle with the preservative film so tightly as to reduce the evaporation of both the
solvent and ink. It will, to a great extent, extend the service life of injection cups.
If the machine is out of service for a long period (during the long holidays, for example,
International Labor Day, National Day, Spring Festival), users must put the solvent into the
injection cup and then cover it with the bonnet. Besides, more solvent should be added to
the bonnet. Finally preservative film can be adopted to enclose the whole injection cup for
the purpose of preventing the dusts penetration and reducing the evaporation of cleaning
solvent.
4 The solution to the clogging of the nozzle
4.1 The techniques for slight clogging of the nozzle
If the nozzle is found slightly clogged in the process of printing, dont hesitate to press the key
PAUSE to stop printing. Then use a vacuum cleaner to suck the clogged ink out of the nozzle. By
means of this method, we can clean the nozzle. Afterwards, cleaning solvent should be taken to
wash away the residue. (Notice: Vacuum cleaner should not be utilized to suck a given injection too
64
many times, otherwise, it will likely to damage the injection cup.)

The prompt, resolute and thorough treatment to the slight clogging is of paramount importance to
maintain the optimum working state for the long printing.
In addition, it is necessary to carefully examine the injection cup and eventually discover the
reason for the clogging. (If it is due to the ink, change resolutely and make sure that the ink tract be
cleaned as well.)
4.2 The techniques for frequent clogging of the nozzle
Firstly press the key PAUSE to stop printing and then move the head to the leftist cleaning position
Generally speaking, the problem can be solved through directly using the vacuum cleaner to suck
the injection cups.
If it still doesnt work, open the machine and pull out all the signal wires of a liquid level inductor
connected to control panel. Then suck the injection cup, restart printing and observe the possible
change. If there is a change for the better, it indicates that the problem originates from liquid level.
At that moment you should try to restore the injection cup to the normal state by adjusting the
position of ink box, the temperature of working environment and the working voltage of injection
cup.
If there is still no change, pull out the ink-supplying pipe on the injection cup and use a glass
syringe to draw out the special solvent for cleaning the injection cup. The procedure is as follows:
inject 40ml solvent each time and wait for 10 minutes. The process should be repeated 3-4 times.
After cleaning, make ink-supplying pipe and the signal wire of liquid level inductor plugged into.
Then resume the printing that stopped previously.
4.3 Measures taken after the methods mentioned above dont work.
Avoid using non-woven fabrics and directly cover it with the injection cup bonnet. Then inject 3mm
of solvent into the bonnet and enclose the injection cup shelf with the protective membrane to
guard against the evaporation.
Notice: The signal interface on the top of printhead cannot meet solvent, or the printheads will be
burned.
After the injection cup is immersed in the solvent, use the glass syringe to draw out the solvent one
or two times from the interface of the ink pipe, which is on the top of injection cup.
Use the glass syringe to draw out 40ml of special cleaning solvent and then inject the solvent into
the interface of ink-supplying pipe. Next pay attention to the waterline that comes out of the nozzle.
If the waterline is straight, it proves that the cleaning is effective and the injection cup can be
further used (The prerequisite is that the circuit and piezoelectric crystal are intact). If it is distorted,
then repeat step 2 and step 3 two or three times.
5 Preventing clogging of the injection cup
5.1 The origin of the clogging
The ink is of inferior quality.

The dramatic changes in both temperature and humidity exert effect on both injection cup
65
and ink.
The stability of the ink determines the use of the injection cup of ink jet plotter. On the
other hand, its stability is determined by the following factors: viscosity, surface tension,
volatility, and fluidity. However, these indexes are not totally decided by manufacturing
technique. Actually, storage, temperature and humidity also play the decisive role in the
normal use of the ink. If the temperature is high, the viscosity will grow low. If it is low, the
viscosity will become high. These two conditions can change the previous state of ink and
the spotted line or spurious image will thus occur, which is referred to as false clogging.
On the other hand, if the humidity is low but the temperature is relatively high, the volatility
of the ink will be raised. As a result, the ink is dried into a hard condensate and left on the
injection cup, which may affect the normal function of the injection cup. However, if there
is a high humidity, the ink will accumulate around the hole, dripping and even flowing,
which makes the image difficult to be dry. Under such circumstances, it will also contribute
to the improper function of the injection cup. Therefore, attention should be paid to the
variation of temperature and humidity at any moment. Even the minute change in humidity
may influence the working of injection cup. On account of the limited ink within the ink
cavity of the injection cup, ink is supplied through syphonage. So the dramatic change in
the external temperature is easy enough to disturb the previous equilibrium state. The
reason is as follows: the working injection cup can produce given amount of heat, which
enables the ink to be balanced and stable. But if when the weather changes sharply, a
sudden decrease or rise in temperature, and there is no device available for regulating
temperature, the effect on the injection cup can appear to be apparent. At this moment,
injection cup fails to function well, the same is true of the ink, even for the ink of the same
type. The only way out is to control temperature so well as to ensure the daily temperature
range of 3-5 degrees in workshop.
The effect of voltage on the injection cup

Since the voltage of injection cup can be determined by the degree of curvature of
piezoceramics inside the injection cup, the high voltage can also increase the amount of
the ink jetted. For the injection cups of diversified norms, manufacturers offer their
respective voltage ratings within which interjections can perform normally. Users should
strictly follow the rule while operating the machine. For instance, the manufacturer of
XAAR-128 injection cup recommends that the voltage rating be less than 35 V. Under the
prerequisite that it doesnt work at the cost of image quality, the lower the voltage is, the
better. It is proven that if the voltage surpassed 33V, stoppage of the ink supply will occur
frequently and the service life will be reduced. It has been mentioned that high voltage
can increase the degree of curvature of piezoceramics. So if the injection cup works in the
state of high frequency oscillation, the piezocrystal likely to fatigue, wear out and even
break. On the hand, the low voltage can affect the saturation degree of the image. So for
the injection cup of the XAAR-128 the suitable working voltage ranges from 28V to 33V.
For XAAR 126, 20 V is adequate. Hence the service life of the injection cup can be greatly
extended.
The effect the static exerts on equipment and ink
Very often this problem goes unnoticed. XAAR-128/126 is a piezoelectric injection cup. In
66
the process of printing considerable static is generated by the friction between the
material and the roller. If not eliminated promptly, the static is likely to affect the proper
working of the injection cup. For example, if the static is strong enough to attract the ink
drops, the latter may deviate from the normal trace and will be scattered in the
unconventional way. On the other hand, the extremely powerful static will destroy the
injection cup and even burn the circuit board. Thus it is extremely important to eliminate
the static by means of the correct and effective measures, the best one of which is to
have the ground wires installed.
Strictly speaking, ground wires shouldnt be connected with the common ground wires
because there is the possibility that static may exist in the other equipment connected to
the whole supply network. From the past experience, ground wires of every equipment
should be installed separately. The correct way to overhead the ground wires is after the
copper plate (no less than 0.5 square meters) is connected to the equipment with the
copper conductor, bury the plate in the well-dug humid space under the ground (below 1.8
meter) and pour the brine in. When it is completed, run the equipment for more than 1
hour and then measure the amount of remaining static in the equipment. The method is
as follows: use the multimeter to adjust alternating current to be 200 and connect the
needle with both the zero line of input of the voltage rating 220 V and ground wires, and
then read the number (whose absolute value is the amount of the remaining static). The
suitable value is 1 ohm and the measurement should be often made. If the value is above
1 ohm or fluctuates sharply, the groundwires must be checked immediately. Many
companies hold that once the groundwires are installed, it will function well for good.
Actually it is dangerous to ignore the routine examination.
The effect of cleaning manners on injection cup
The surface of XAAR injection cup is usually covered with a layer of protective membrane,
on which there are some laser drilling holes determining the precision of injection cup.
However, many users simply use the sponge and non-woven fabrics to make the injection
cup tidy. In consequence, the surface of injection cup is scratched and even damaged,
which results in the occurrence of some tiny hairs that will shape the direction in which the
ink is jetted and cause the accumulation of ink drops on the surface of the injection
cup(which is easily confused with the clogging of injection cup). Nowadays, non-woven
fabrics prevail on the market of cleaning cloth. But owing to the relatively rough texture, it
may pose a great danger to the injection cup which can hardly bear the wear and tear. So
it is strongly recommended that users employ the special paper for cleaning injection cup
or the special non-woven fabrics.
6 Cautions for using printing ink
The storage temperature for printing ink ranges from 10 to 40

Avoid the violent vibration of printing ink pot in the process of storage and use
Dont wobble the ink bottle acutely while transporting or using the ink.
Read the relevant instructions carefully before using the printing ink
Treat the printing ink in accordance with the local rules and regulations concerned
The ink pot cannot be recycled
67
Expeditous measures taken after osculating the printing ink.

When ink goes into your eyes, use massive fresh water to clean.
When the skin osculates the ink, use the soap and fresh water to clean
When ink is mistakenly eaten, try to vomit.
