Quick Start Guide
Unpack
Your Azon DTS is a very large piece of equipment and it is shipped in a
sturdy crate with bracing to hold delicate components in place.
Unpack your printer with care and please retain all shipping materials.
The printer and shipping crate combined weigh close to 165 kg.
Because of the bulk of the machine, this is a MINIMUM TWO PERSON

Placement of Your Printer
The DTS final destination MUST BE A STURDY TABLE OR OTHER
For operator comfort, we recommend the height of the platform no more than 60 cm. This table must be able
to support the full weight of your printer (80 kg). The table MUST also be able to incorporate the entire
"footprint" of the machine across its surface. NO PART of the Azon DTS should overhang an edge. Take the
printer out of the box carefully and place it on a table.
Final Unpacking Instructions
Remove the packing tape that was used to secure the low profile access lid and raise the cover.
Unscrew and remove head protection.
Release the Green shipping tab lock located at the base of the Print Carriage.
Remove screws to unblock table.
Plug the Unit into AC Power
Insert the AC cord into the unit and plug the opposite end into a power strip with surge
protection. Avoid plugging multiple items into the same power strip.
This machine has a main power switch, IR lamp power and a sub power switch. When using the
machine, you switch all on in this sequence: first heather, then printer and last the sub power.
Use IR lamp control to turn on the lamp only during printing. At all other time IR lamp
must be off.

Preparing and Filling system with ink
Wait until the message in the LCD display shows “Ready”.
1. The Ink cartridges are numbered from 1-8. Using these
numbers as a guide, place the sealed Ink cartridges into
your Azon DTS and lower both blue levers to secure
them in place.
2. You must perform a Power Cleaning during setup to ensure ink is proper flowing
through the ink lines.
After every Power Cleaning always empty waste container.
Power Cleanings are executed from the LCD Display Panel.
With the printer in Ready status on the LCD Display Panel
located above the White ink cartridge press the RIGHT ARROW
once.
Press the UP ARROW and scroll through the menu items until
you come to "Maintenance." Press the RIGHT ARROW once.
Press the DOWN ARROW to scroll the menu items until you
come to "Power Clean." To execute a Power Cleaning, press
the RIGHT ARROW once. Confirm Power Cleaning by pressing
RIGHT ARROW again. Abort it with LEFT ARROW.
The LCD display will inform you of the Power Cleaning's status in percentages. At the
10% mark, the display will prompt you to move both blue levers into the UP position.
At the 20% mark, you will be prompted to move both blue levers into the DOWN position.
You will again be prompted to move both levers at the 30%, 40% and 50% marks. At the
50% point, both levers will be in the DOWN position and you will not have to adjust them
again during the power cleaning cycle.
Once the Power Cleaning is complete, the LCD Display will read "Ready."
Perform one more Power Cleanings.
Connecting to the Network
Make sure you have the correct cable for connecting the printer. To connect to a network switch
or hub, you need a standard RJ-45 “straight-through” network cable. To connect directly to your
computer’s network interface, you need an RJ-45 crossover cable.
1 Connect one end of the appropriate cable to the printer’s Ethernet port. Then connect
the other end to your network switch or hub or your computer’s Ethernet port.
2 Once the printer is connected to your network, you need to configure it.
Configuring the Network Interface
A Printer Driver is software needed to make any printer function. For your Azon DTS to operate
properly, you will need to install driver from DTS CD.
1. Run EPSetup.exe from folder Printer Driver. On Main Window select Epson Stylus Pro
4880C.
2. Select Set up the printer via a network connection
3. Select your printer and skip test page printing.
Now your Printer Driver is installed and your printer is connected to computer. Finish installation
and return to main window.
4. From the main window select Epson LFP Remote Panel
The LFP Remote Panel is a standalone application designed to give you several utility
functions, including the Nozzle Check and Power Cleaning utilities, right from your
computer. The alignment procedure is also completed by using the Epson LFP Remote
Panel.
5. Select Stylus Pro 4880
Finish installation and press exit on main window. Reboot printer.
Print Head Alignment
In addition to the initial setup requirements, it may be necessary to perform a Print Head
Alignment on other occasions such as:
• If the Print Head makes contact with any object
• If your prints contain vertical lines or misaligned parts of an image
• If you see banding of any kind
Please be aware, should the Print Head make contact with ANY solid surface, it may be
permanently damaged and require replacement.
Performing a Head Alignment on an Azon DTS will require approximately 15-30 minutes. Before
beginning this procedure ensure you are familiar with all the required steps, as well as having
the necessary time to complete the process. Once you have begun a Head Alignment you
CANNOT exit the function without shutting down the machine. In addition, early exit may result
in severe misalignment of the Print Head or other operational concerns. Initial setup may require
2-3 alignment procedures to be completed.
It is necessary during setup to set and adjust the Calibration Plate to the proper height for output.
In addition, should you need to raise or lower the Calibration Plate to accommodate optimum
height for output, the following procedure would be used:
•Place the Calibration Plate on top of and to the front and right edge (facing printer) of
your Plate guide. Secure Calibration Plate in place with double side tape.
•Press ↓ down button on printer control panel. This will lift plate guide with calibration
plate up. Safety switch will stop plate movement. At this point calibration plate is too
far from print head.
•Press memory button on printer control panel twice.
•This will continue lifting table up.
