8. Daily Maintenance
There are two levels of daily maintenance: User - performed by the operator, and Service -
performed by EC-JET Trained Service Engineers.
User maintenance is required daily (each time the printer is used) and weekly.
Service (scheduled) maintenance is required after every 4000 jet running hours.
The following table defines the user maintenance requirements for EC-JET printers:
8.1. Cleaning the Printer Cabinet
8.1.1. General
The exterior of the printer can be cleaned using a soft cloth lightly soaked in a mold detergent.
CAUTION: Do not use abrasive cleaning agents. Do not use excessive pressure when wiping over
the LCD screen; excessive pressure can cause damage.
8.1.2. Ink Spillages
If ink is accidentally spilled onto the exterior of the printer the following procedures are
recommended:
WARING: ALWAYS WEAR RUBBER GLOVES AND SAFETY GLASSER
WHEN HANDLING SOLVENT. DO NOT USE SOLVENT IN CONFINED
AREAS WITHOUT ADEQUATE VENTILATION.
CAUTION: USE ONLY EC-JET SOLVENT. ENSURE THAT THE SOLVENT
MATCHES THE TYPE USED IN THE PRINTER.
Do not use excessive amounts of solvent. It is not recommended that solvent is used
frequently to remove ink from the front panel and LCD screen as this can lead to
deterioration of the membrane surface. Better to use a soft cloth with solvent to wipe
lightly.
