Product Overview

Heater Element  Temperature  Function 
Pre-heater (Heater A)  20 – 50°C 
→ Open the pores to make the media more receptive for Spitfire 
Mild Solvent Ink.

→ To establish optimum fixation onto the media (coated and 
uncoated). 
→ Optimizes the dot gain control. 
Post-Fixer (Heater C)  20 – 70°C 
→ The post-fixer finalizes the fixation process and helps to make 
the prints touch-dry. 
Dryer (Heater D)  20 – 50°C 
→ The dryer completes the drying for compatibility with the take-up 
in combination with higher output speeds. 
There have been a number of requests from the field, asking the heaters to be on by default for a few user 
settings. This has now been implemented as follows: 
•  For user 1 and user 8 default settings are as follows: 
a.  Pre heater A:  50°C 
b. Fixer B:  40°C 
c.  Post Fixer C:  50°C 
d. Dryer D:  50°C 
•  For users 2 Î 7, by default the heaters are still OFF. 
 Notes   
Please note some RIP software do not allow selection of the user from software side. In some cases, 
however, they do automatically activate user 8
