Flammable Vapour and Electro-Static Discharge
The printer puts an electrical charge on each drop of ink used for printing. Normally these
electrical charges are conducted to ground. Ground the equipment correctly to make sure
electrical charges are conducted to ground.
Maintenance
During maintenance, ink drops may be collected in a container. Use a container made of
conducting material that is securely connected to ground. The electrical charges on the ink
drops will then be conducted to ground.
WARNING: Flammable vapour. Risk of fire and personal injury.
Install and operate the printer in a well ventilated environment.
Do not install or operate the printer in closed or sealed rooms or cabinets.
Insufficient ventilation may cause an accumulation of flammable vapour.
WARNING: Electrostatic discharge hazard. Risk of fire and personal injury.
Connect the equipment to ground, to make sure electrostatic charges are
conducted to ground.
Electrostatic sparks can ignite flammable vapour.
Obey anti-static precautions when handling ink and make-up.
CAUTION: Electrostatic discharge hazard. Risk of damage to printer.
Obey electrostatic precautions when doing maintenance work:
• Switch off the printer.
• Wear a wristband connected to ground.
• Do not wear clothing which can build up electrostatic
charges.
• Use ESD protective bags to transport PCBs.
• Only place PCBs on a mat made from conductive material
which is connected to ground.
