Maintenance Safety Instructions
When performing any printer maintenance procedures, follow these safety instructions:
• Always wear protective eyewear, gloves, and a mask when performing printer maintenance. Should
any waste ink or ink cleaner come in contact with your skin or enter your eyes or mouth, immediately
take the following actions:
• If fluid gets on to your skin, immediately wash it off using plenty of soap and water. Consult a
physician if the skin appears irritated or discolored.
• If fluid gets in your eyes, rinse immediately with water. Failure to observe this precaution could
result in bloodshot eyes or mild inflammation. If problems persist, consult a physician.
• If fluid gets in your mouth, consult a physician immediately.
• If fluid is swallowed, do not induce vomiting and consult a physician immediately. If vomiting is
induced, fluid may get caught in the trachea which can be dangerous.
• Store ink packs, waste ink, ink cleaner, and cleaning ink packs out of the reach of children.
• Wash your hands thoroughly after performing any maintenance procedure.
• Remove any loaded T-shirt from the printer before starting periodic cleaning.
• Touch a metal object before starting operations to disperse any static electricity.
• Do not touch the carriage shaft inside the printer. This may cause an operational error or a
malfunction.
• To prevent the print head from drying out, finish cleaning the suction cap and replacing the head
cleaning set within 10 minutes. After 10 minutes, the printer displays a message.
• Do not touch any parts or circuit boards other than the parts you are maintaining. This may cause a
malfunction or decline in print quality.
• Always use new cleaning swabs to avoid getting the printer parts dirty.
• Do not touch the tip of the cleaning swab with your hand. Oils on your hand may compromise cleaning
ability.
• Do not use tap water or organic solvents such as alcohol on the suction cap or the wiper unit. If ink is
mixed with tap water or alcohol, it may solidify.
