Chapter 11. Safe Clean Station 
11-2 
This chapter describes the function and operation instructions of the Safe Clean Station (cleaning station). 
When operating the station, note the following. 
 
● Solvent steam is produced during head cleaning. If you have no choice but to touch the print 
head or cleaning station during head cleaning, be sure to remove static electricity from your 
body in advance. 
● See "Safety Precautions" in this basic operation instruction manual for detailed precautions. 
● Before aborting the head cleaning to pull out the print head, wear protective gloves and 
goggles and prepare wiping paper. The print head may not be dried enough. 
● Do not insert any other item than the print head of the target unit. Doing so may cause an 
unexpected failure or malfunction. 
● Do not dump waste ink or makeup into the drain.  
Waste ink and makeup must be disposed of as specially controlled industrial waste, and wiping 
paper used to wipe ink and empty bottles or containers must be disposed of as industrial 
waste. Contact an industrial waste treatment company for disposal. 
● If you spill any ink or makeup by mistake, wipe it off neatly and promptly with wiping paper or 
something similar. 
● When the unit is operated for the first time or the head cleaning is not performed for several 
days (four or more days), the volume of makeup used for head cleaning may change to fill the 
piping. 
● Do not pull out the print head until cleaning operation is completed. Otherwise, the makeup 
may splash or high-concentration solvent steam may remain inside.
