INTRODUCTION
This user manual details the initial setup, installation, basic operation, regular maintenance, troubleshooting and warranty of the Copytrax PrintMaster Rubens Multi-Purpose Digital Inkjet Printer.
As a multi-purpose printer using solvent inks, a defined print parameter for every conceivable print
material cannot be supplied because the variances between each of them are too numurous to cover in this document. What we aim to achieve is to provide the necessary knowledge, either by this
manual or by training visit, to achieve stunning print results on almost any substrate.
MODEL REVISIONS
Revision 1: White case (R2400 engine)
Revision 2: Black case (R2400 engine)
Revision 3: White or Black case (R2000 engine)
Information in this manual is relevant to all revisions. Specific and differing details between each
revision will be highlighted.
INK
All revisions of the PrintMaster Rubens purchased from 2013 onwards are supplied with Pigment
Solvent Ink available in the following setups:
•
•
CMYK + CMYK
CMYK + White
All revisions of the PrintMaster Rubens purchased upto and including 2012 were supplied with Dye
Eco-Solvent Ink available in the following setup:
•
CMYK + LK LC LM LLK
PRINT SUBSTRATES
To date, the solvent ink supplied for the PrintMaster Rubens has been tested on the following substrates:
•
Plastic / PVC, Metal, Glass, Wood, Leather, Ceramic, Slate.
PRE-TREATMENT
Some materials may need pre-treating before printing, however those that do mostly relate to the
cleanliness of the material from handling and manufacture. For example, some plastics may be
statically charged and need an application of an anti-static agent before printing. The exact nature of
any pre-treatment, if required, will be defined and advised upon during the initial sample printing
process before purchase.

AIR FILTER UNIT
The Air Filter Unit is required for use with the Pigment Solvent Ink Set. It must be switched on during
printing. It is not necessary to leave it powered on before or after printing.
It’s purpose is to remove any odour produced by the solvents in the ink set from the working environment. The presence of the Air Filter Unit enables the PrintMaster Rubens to be operated safely
within offices, not just print shops and factories.
Within the Air Filter Unit are two (2) large carbon filters that can be replaced, but under normal use
should not require so. This is because the filters are only required to remove odour.

PREPARATION
Ensure a sufficient working area is prepared for your printer where the flatbed can fully extend to
the front and rear, and access is possible to all sides of the printer. The printer must be positioned
on a suitable flat and level surface, able to support the weight of the printer (75Kg).
Ensure that all additional options are included with your shipment, contact Copytrax or your supplier if any part of your order is missing. Templates for bespoke jig print fixtures will be supplied upon
request.
Once the printer is located in its working area remove all packing material.
PRINTER SETUP
Attach the ducting to the printer outlet chimney and to the Air Filter Unit inlet. Twist the ducting onto
the respective attachments for a tight and proper fitting. Printers using the Eco-Solvent ink set (Revisions 1&2 up to 2013) do not require the Air Filter unit and so may not have a chimney installed on the
Printer.

HEATED VACUUM BED
The Heated Vacuum Bed is an optional extra installed at the factory.
The primary function of the heating element is to pre-warm non-pourous substrates (e.g. Glass,
Metal, Ceramic etc.) to improve the evaporation time of any excess ink. This allows a higher initial
ink aplilcation to achieve a greater density of colour on those substrates.
The primary function of the vacuum fans is to hold thin items in place during printing (e.g. Glass,
Film, Foam Boards etc.). The vacuum is at its most effective when the entire bed is covered.
Heated Vacuum Bed
Vacuum ON/OFF Switch
Temperature Controller
The Temperature Controller will regulate the Heated Bed to the desired temperature. This is set by pressing the UP/DOWN buttons until
the temperature you would like to set is displayed.
While adjustments are being made the SET LED is lit to indicate the
target temperature.
AB C D
While no adjustments are being made the current temperature is
displayed.
RUN LED ON = Heated Bed is on to achieve the target temperature.
RUN LED OFF = Target temperature has been achieved.
If the current temperature falls below that of the target, the Heated
Bed will switch ON until the target temperature is reached.

B. Adjustment UP
C. Timer Function
D. Heated Bed ON/OFF
It is not advised to switch the Heated Bed ON while an Acrylic Bespoke Jig is on
the Flatbed. Heat may warp or distort the Acrylic.
15
HEAT LAMP
An internal heat lamp is included as standard in all revisions of the PrintMaster Rubens.
The primary function of the heat lamp is to pre-warm substrates (e.g. Glass, Metal, Ceramic etc.) to
improve the evaporation time of any excess ink. This allows a higher initial ink aplilcation to achieve
a greater density of colour on those substrates.
Heat Lamp Control Dial
The lamp is operated and controlled by the dial shown above. The numbers on the dial refer to the
brightness of the lamp, from OFF to 100%. The brighter the lamp is set, the more intense the heat is
generated.
The lamp is located immediately behind the printing engine inside the Printer and applies heat to
any material directly below it.
Limitations: The lamp is provided as a means to pre-warm certain materials that require it, and
where the Heated Vacuum Bed option is not purchased. It is not possible to accurately apply a specific temperature using only the lamp and intense heat applied by the lamp may result in distortion to
the printing material. It is recommended only a low brightness is set whenever the lamp is used.
Only use the heat lamp during printing, switch it on immediately before printing
commences and switch it off immediately after printing is completed. Never leave
the heat lamp on when the Printer is unattended or when any material or Bespoke
Jig are idle under the lamp.
16
PRINTING
There are certain conditions that should be met prior to any printing:
•
•
•
•
•
•
The Printer must be switched ON, see How to Switch the Printer ON p.13.
The ink supply bottle lids must be loose (present on top of their respective bottle but not tightened).
The regular maintenance must have been carried out, see Regular Maintenance p..
The Printer must be connected to the operating PC by USB cable (or Ethernet where applicable).
The Air Filter Unit is switched ON.
No errors are present on the Printer.
Load printing material onto the flatbed
or jig fixture.
Press button 7
[Autoheight] to
load the flatbed
ready for printing.
Printer ready for
printing.
The Autoheight function will have set the optimal gap [plus a small tolerance] between the highest
material surface on the flatbed and the print head. The Printer is now ready to receive a print command from the PC.
Printers using the Solvent Ink set will be provided with our recommended RIP software and all
printing will be done from that program. For instructions on how to use our RIP software and how
to send print jobs from it, please refer to the relevant User Manual.
If the Printer has been idle for more than 15 minutes, it maybe necessary to perform one head
clean before printing.
For older Printers using the Eco-Solvent Ink set (8 colour), refer to the How to Print with the Eco-Solvent Ink Set section in the Appendix of this user manual.
FUNCTIONS AFTER A PRINT JOB HAS BEEN SENT.
Fine Flatbed Height Adjustment.
The gap between print head and material is important to achieving the best possible print quality. It
is possible to fine tune this gap during printing should the Autoheight function allow too much of a
tolerance.
17
Optimal gap between print head and material is 2-3mm.
During printing, to reduce the gap between print head and material press button 4 [UP] to raise the
flatbed.
During printing, to increase the gap between print head and material press button 5 [DOWN] to
lower the flatbed.
A fine tuned flatbed height can be retained for subsequent print passes by using button 6 [Repeat
Print] to load the flatbed to the rear of the printer, rather than using the Autoheight function. This
should only be done where the printing material is identical to the previous print.
Fine tuning the flatbed height can only be done during printing. Attempting this
during the feed time immediately before printing has commenced will result in a
Print Error. Fine tuning the flatbed height is done so at the operators risk, there
is no safeguard against print head and material contact from an incorrect adjustment.
Multi Page Printing.
When more than one copy, or print pass, is sent to the printer, each subsequent pass is initiated
from the Printer’s keypad.
At the end of a print pass where there is another to follow, wait for the the LED @ button 6 [Repeat
Print] to start flashing. When this LED is flashing press button 6 [Repeat Print] to load the flatbed to
the rear of the Printer ready for the next print pass.
When the flatbed is at the rear of the Printer ready for the next print pass the following will occur:
Revision 3: The next print pass will start immediately when the flatbed is at the rear of the Printer.
Revision 1 & 2: The LED @ button 6 [Repeat Print] will flash again. Press button 6 [Repeat Print] to
start the next print pass.
Keypad LED status when another print pass is ready.
