SAFETY PRECAUTIONS (Continued)
WARNING
● When charging a refill of ink or makeup, exchanging ink, or otherwise
handling ink or makeup, take enough care not to spill ink or makeup.
If you spill any ink or makeup by mistake, wipe it off neatly and promptly with
wiping paper or something similar. Do not close the maintenance cover until
you make sure that the portion you have just wiped is completely dry.
You must pay particular attention when you have spilled ink or makeup inside
the printer and it is not completely dry. Why? Because vapors of ink or
makeup will stay inside the printer and may catch on or cause a fire.
If you find it hard to wipe the printer when it is turned on, stop it with the maintenance
cover open. Power it down, and then wipe it off again.
● If you wish to clean the casing of the printer with wiping paper impregnated
with makeup, be sure to do so with the power off.
Attempting to clean it when the power is on will cause makeup or vapors of makeup
to enter the printer, possibly catching on or causing a fire.
When the cleaning is over, open the maintenance cover and make sure that no
makeup has entered and no vapors remain inside.
● Should you find a leak of ink or makeup inside the printer while the printer is
running or being maintained, wipe it off promptly with wiping paper or
something similar. Then, with the maintenance cover open, stop the printer,
power it down, and repair the leak.
Continuing operation with a leak of ink or makeup will cause an anomaly,
resulting in abnormal printing.
Ink and makeup are flammable. They may therefore catch on or cause a fire.
● The ink and makeup, their waste solution, used wiping papers and empty
containers are flammable. Waste disposal must comply with appropriate
regulations. Consult the appropriate regulatory agency for further information.
● If you wish to receive ink particles in a beaker, for a printing test for example,
use an electrically conductive beaker and connect the beaker securely to the
ground.
Do not let the tip of the printing head enter the beaker.
Ink particles used for printing are electrically charged. An ungrounded beaker has a
gradually rising charge, possibly catching on or causing a fire.
● Ensure that all electrical wiring, connections and grounding comply with
applicable cords. Properly connect the printer to its dedicated ground.
Complete the above procedure to avoid electrical shock hazards.
● When welding, keep enough space between the IJ printer and the welding
work area to prevent the arc from starting a fire. Also, be sure to insulate the
printhead and IJ printer frame to keep the welding current from flowing to the
control section of the printer, and to make a separate ground connection for
the printer.
