Level 2 badge used at Pikes Peak Makerspace

The Large Format Printing Area at Pikes Peak Makerspace (PPM) consists mostly of Level 2 equipment.

Additional PPM training is required to use any of our Level 2 equipment.


Contact Us if you cannot find your answer here on our Wiki or if you notice any information that is outdated.

 


Classes

PPM announces its Upcoming events, including classes, on Meetup
To help out with the Large Format Printer, post your ideas/comments on Slack.

Training

☐ After loading a new roll of material, be sure the roll spins freely. (Be sure it doesn't rub against the printer.)
☐ Use the small power button on the front, lower left of the printer for an "Emergency Stop", if necessary.
☐ Otherwise, to clear the printer, cycle the power using the power switch in the back, next to the power cord.
☐ Plain paper is recyclable. (Photo paper and canvas are not recyclable.)
☐ Be sure to log your printing job using the Printer Usage Form.

Tips

☐ The media profile for "Canvas" does not allow cutting at the end of the job (or even manually), just use the scissors instead.
☐ If printer reports "Print Head Path Error 2", check the (Illustrator) file for any elements that might need to be trimmed to fit within the artboard.
