Please retain this page nearby your printer for future reference.
Please follow the installation instructions for your safety.
Installation:
1.
Please note that once the PrintHead has been installed it is necessary to use the guide bar to protect the PrintHead from damaged while printing. (Any external damaged, included box collision without the guide bar will not be covered by warranty)
2.
When you extract the ink cartridge from the holder, press it and take it out at a 15 degree angle. Please note that any removal by excessive force will damage the PrintHead.
3.
After the installation process is completed, please ensure ALL the screws are tightened.
4.
The installation of a UPS is highly recommended because it helps to avoid the damage that may be caused by power loss.
5.
It is highly recommended for users to correctly earth the printer. Furthermore, it’s necessary to connect to a dedicate power socket.
6.
If the working environment is dusty, it is highly recommended clean the nozzle regularly using a low level compressed air supply that is dry and clean.
Operation:
1.
The remote controller will turned off automatically after three minutes if it is not being operated.
2.
Please keep the printing throw distance within 6mm to ensure the best printing quality.
3.
When the lay-out appears to have ink excessive, please apply the wet wipe

SD card
SD card is the ultimate source of data transfer between PC (
MessagePRO
) and U2 printer.
CARD LOST:
You can purchase any standard 2GB SD card as replacement.
As blank SD card, please insert the cards into U2 printer for activation, and the card will be auto-activated by obtaining the same serial number from the printer.
The
MessagePRO
can only function properly when the card is activated.
SWITCH PRINTER: To use your SD card for different U2 printer without losing previous saved messages or data, insert the card into the U2 printer; the pop-up message will be shown, and press “
YES
” button to make the SD card can be compatible with theU2.
The U2 printer should always use matching SD card model; when a different model SD card is inserted into U2, the screen will display “SD
MODEL MISMATCH”.
For example: The standard SD cards for the U2 printers are not compatible with the HD U2 printer.
The U2 printer has the ability to store previous working messages.
However, without an activated SD card, only the first message may be edited and saved. After the SD card is inserted, the working message #001 will be substituted to the default test message.

Direction: Switch the direction of printing.
: Print from “A” to “C”.
: Print from “C” to “A”.
: Print from “C” to “A” and rotate 180°.
: Print from “A” to “C” and rotate 180°.
Nozzle: Switch left (Default) or right.
Resolution: user can adjust resolution from 50~600dpi, when the encoder is
OFF
.
As U2 default resolution: 300x400, the first number represents vertical dpi, which will auto adjust to 600 when Dual Channel is ON. The second number represents horizontal resolution, and it can be adjusted manually.
Please aware the effeteness of printing speed (Higher dpi but slower printing speed) and distortion of printing image when horizontal dpi is adjusted.
Pre-purge
Enable Pre-purge function, the Printer will output ink dots periodically, preventing the ink solidified on the nozzle in a dry environment or long printing gap time.
Pre-Purge is an important attribution to the print quality, especially with different semi-porous and none-porous ink, it is critical to adjust calibration for different environments due to the unique ink character and decap time.
