5.11. How to Check Ink Drop State 
This section describes how to check the ink drop state using a magnifying glass. 
Note that switch the unit to the ink ejection state to perform this operation. 
 
● Wear protective gear (goggles and mask) when operating. 
● If any ink or makeup enters your eyes or mouth, immediately flush with warm or cold water and 
consult a physician. 
● Before ejecting the ink, make sure that there is no one in the ejection direction. (Operate with 
the end of the print head inserted in a beaker, etc.) 
 
 
Check that the unit is in the standby state, and remove the print head cover.
