Specifying the Ink Drying Time

When you are using paper that takes longer for ink to adhere, ink may be transferred onto the paper surface during ejection, soiling it. In that case, you may be able to improve the condition by setting the time to wait for the ink to dry after printing.

Important

Printer settings are applied when the ink drying time is not set in the printer driver. If the ink drying time is set in the printer driver, that setting has priority.

- Advanced Paper Settings (macOS)

Note

If the cutter touches the print surface on which the ink is not dry, the paper surface may become scratched or soiled, or the paper surface may rub when the paper falls and the surface may become soiled.

To wait for the ink to dry without allowing printed materials to fall after printing, set Cutting mode on the printer menu to Eject cut.

Pausing on the last page during take-up

When you use a roll unit mode as a take-up, you set the wait time after you print the last page.

If you have the next page to print, cancel the drying time waiting and print.

Select paper settings display area on Home screen.
Select paper source.
Select Paper settings.
Select Advanced.
Select Pause on last page take-up.
Select a setting from the menu.
