What should I do if I am printing on a cap made with a high percentage of polyester content? Please allow yourself ample practice to get use to applying the pretreatment. Manually pretreating caps either with a hand-held sprayer or roller takes some practice to ensure you are applying the proper amount of pretreat. Yes, anytime you print white ink on a cap it must be pretreated. We recommend you test the height of the Cap Platen by pressing the platen feed button to make sure the cap does not hit the obstruction bar, there will be no head strikes on the cap and that you are not too far down from the bottom of the print head depending on which print direction mode (Bi-direcitonal or Uni-directional) you are using.ĭo I need to pretreat dark colored caps when printing with white ink? This area is below the printable area of the riser to prevent the silver handles on the clips from hitting the obstruction bar. The black clips are attached to the back of the Cap Platen Base. How do you prevent the silver handles on the black clips from hitting the obstruction bar on the GT printer? We cut out a center groove on the Small Riser to help keep the center seam on a 6-panel structured cap as flat as possible. Why does the Small Riser have a center groove in it?
Because of the additional material used to keep the crown of the cap sticking up with structured caps, it is easier to use the Small Riser. We recommend you use the Small Riser when printing on structured caps. What Riser do you recommend for printing on structured caps? We suggest to GT Users to try it with and without the Spacer to see which works best for them based on the caps being printed on. In other cases, the GT User may want to make it easier to load the cap to be GT Cap Platen by raising up the front lip on the Riser. In some cases, the GT User might want to raise up the printable area on the crown of the cap. Why would I want to use the Spacer in conjunction with one of the Risers? You will need to put both of these one the threaded post of the bill holder once it is placed in the desired location.
Be careful when removing the wing nut so you don’t lose the washer or spring. Simple unscrew the wing nut to move the bill holder from one location to another. We designed the bill holders so that you can adjust the position of them into three locations. What if the bill on the cap I want to print is larger or smaller than a typical cap? Will it work on the GT Cap Platen? We recommend that you test the height of the platen by pressing the Platen In/Out Feed button on the Control Panel to see if the cap will help the obstruction bar. A good starting point would be Letter C on the platen height adjustment lever. The answer to this question varies depending on whether you are using the Spacer, the thickness of the cap being used and how smooth you were able to get the crown of the cap to lay across the riser. What platen height setting should I set the GT Cap Platen on?
