● Fresh: New material
Material cartridges
The material cartridges deposit the material in the build unit.
See the material list for ordering information.
● The HP Jet Fusion 5200 accepts cartridges with a capacity of 30 or 300 liters.
● The HP Jet Fusion 5210 accepts the use of the refillable HP Material Loading Tank with a capacity of

The weight of the cartridge varies according to the material type. Special care must be taken to avoid
per
sonal injury when handling heavy cartridges.
If pressure is put on a cartridge while it is being vacuumed, and the connection is removed, material
spills may happen. To avoid spills:
● Do not remove the handle while vacuuming.
● Never place anything heavy—more than 1 kg (2.2 lb)—on top of a cartridge.
● Take care not to drop a cartridge.
● Do not try to force the last of the material out of an almost-empty cartridge by pressing the bag
inside the car
tridge.
Replace a cartridge
A cartridge should be removed and replaced when it is empty or past its expiry date.
An empty cartridge is indicated in the front panel and by the LED beside the cartridge.
CAUTION: Removing a cartridge before it is empty is not recommended. Cartridges are not designed
f
or storing material after removing the seal, and storing an opened cartridge containing material can
render the material unusable and cause safety hazards, such as a cloud of material if dropped.
Depending on the material, it can be sensitive to temperature, humidity, or other factors. Using
cartridges under uncontrolled conditions can affect the functionality of the equipment or severely
damage it.
NOTE: The processing station can continue filling the build unit without any cartridges for some time,
depending on the mat
erial needed.
