Using Your Printer
Follow these guidelines as you use your printer:
• Operate the printer only within the specified operating temperature and humidity range.
• Check to make sure you maintain the specified humidity range, especially in dry areas, air conditioned
environments, or under direct sunlight.
• Do not install the printer next to heat sources or directly in the path of exhaust from a ventilator, air
conditioner, or treatment machine. Failure to observe this precaution could result in the print head
nozzles drying and clogging.
• Do not bend or pull the waste ink tubes; otherwise, ink may leak inside or outside the printer.
• If an error occurs and the printer is turned off without first resolving the error, the print head may not be
capped on the right side, which may cause the print head to dry out. If an error occurs causing the
printer to turn off, turn on the power until capping is performed automatically.
• When the printer is on, do not disconnect the power cable or cut the power at a power strip or circuit
breaker. The print head may not be capped properly. If this occurs, turn on the power until capping is
performed automatically.
• Do not remove ink supply units (ink packs) while the printer is operating or a malfunction may occur.
• Maintenance, such as cleaning and replacing consumables, must be performed according to usage
frequency or at recommended intervals. Print quality declines if maintenance is not performed.
• Do not move the movable base or the platen manually. Otherwise, a malfunction may occur.
• To keep the print head in optimum operating condition, maintenance is performed when the printer is
turned on. If the printer is turned on and off frequently, more ink is consumed in each maintenance
operation. We recommend leaving the power on to reduce ink consumption.
