Loading a Sleeve on the Sleeve Platen

Before printing, carefully load a sleeve onto the sleeve platen.
Note: Make sure that the sleeve platen is installed on the printer.
  1. Turn on the printer, if necessary.
  2. Open the printer cover.


  3. Remove the platen frame, if necessary.
  4. Slide the sleeve over the platen. Load the T-shirt so that the side seams and sleeve seams are not on the top. If there are raised sections, such as seams, an error may occur or the print quality may decline.


  5. Flatten the printing surface and attach the platen frame. Load it so that the small holes in the frame are at the front and back.


  6. Gently pull the edges of the sleeve outside of the frame to remove any slack.


    Note: Do not pull the sleeve too much; otherwise, the print quality may decline, and any white under-base print may extend outside of the image.
  7. Press down the frame of the platen so that it does not become loose.
  8. Tuck the garment around and under the frame so that it does not drape over the base.
    Note: If the garment extends beyond the platen, the printer cover will not close.
