11.3 Advanced Print Techniques for Non-Textile Materials
The DTG Kiosk can print on many different
materials. Explained below are some other special
printing techniques we use.
To print on irregular surfaced print media, we
recommend multiple coating. Especially if the
material is water-repellent, apply at least three
layers of coatings.
Please Note: the DTG Kiosk can print gaps up to about
4mm. If the gap exceeds more than 4mm, the images will
become fuzzy.
Set the media type to Archival Matte Paper or
Watercolor Papar-Rediant White.
Click the Advanced button.
In Advanced window, make sure Color Management
is set to Color Controls
Set the Mode to Automatic
Set the print resolution to Photo 720.

Printing
Move the tray to the ejecting side by pushing the
“EJECT” button and place the printing media in
the printer tray based on the layout in your
graphics program.
Check the height of the print media by using the
Height Clearance Guide.
Put the jig on the both edges of the printer tray
and adjust the height of tray to maintain a gap
between the highest point of the printing media
and the guide of approximately 2mm.
Please Note:
If the Height Clearance Guide touches the media during this test, then the printer head will
also make contact with the media during the printing process, potentially causing irreparable
damage to the print head. Make sure that you adjust the printer tray so that the print media
is set below the guide, and therefore the printer head
Push LOAD button.
Send the print job from your graphics application to the printer.
These instructions are provided as a guide only. You may have to experiment with the
variables such as the undercoat and the print settings of media type, print resolution etc. to
find the right combination to suit the media that you are attempting to print.
