Safety warnings
●
UV light — The ultraviolet (UV) curing lamps emit high power UV light. The printer must be operated
with all safety shielding installed to protect the operator from eye and skin damage. When operated
according to manufacturer’s instructions, safety glasses or other protective clothing are not necessary.
●
Mechanical hazards — Keep fingers away from carriage and media path. Do not exceed the maximum
weight load of the input or output tables, as printed on the label.
●
Ink — Read and practice safety guidelines as outlined in the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for the
ink, and post the document in the work area as required by prevailing law. Avoid any contact with skin
and eyes. Provide adequate general and local exhaust ventilation. Avoid breathing vapors. Respirator
protection may be required under exceptional circumstances when excessive air contamination exists.
None of the component substances have established exposure standards per OSHA, NIOSH, or ACGIH.
Collect waste ink in container provided. Dispose of ink according to MSDS and local regulations. Keep
the waste-ink spigot closed during printing.
●
Special ventilation is not required to meet US OSHA requirements on occupational exposure to VOCs
from the HP UV-curable inks used with the printer. Special ventilation equipment installation is at the
discretion of the customer; no specific HP recommendation is intended. Customers should consult state
and local requirements and regulations.
●
Electrical — WITH THE POWER SWITCH IN THE OFF POSITION, POWER MAY STILL BE SUPPLIED TO THE
PRINTER COMPONENTS. To completely cut power from the printer, you must unplug the power cord
from the power outlet.
●
Ozone — The high power UV light emitted by the curing lamps and ionizer bar reacts with oxygen and
produces ozone. This formation tends to be greatest during lamp startup. The lamps include ozone
filters to reduce ozone production. The printer should be operated in a well-ventilated area to avoid
minor effects such as headaches, fatigue, and dryness of the upper respiratory tract. Normal air
movement will mix the ozone with fresh air, causing it to revert back to oxygen.
●
Hazardous waste — THE PRINTER ELECTRONICS ASSEMBLY CONTAINS A LITHIUM BATTERY DEVICE.
THERE IS A DANGER OF EXPLOSION IF THE BATTERY IS INCORRECTLY REPLACED. The battery must be
replaced only by authorized service providers, and must be replaced only with the same or equivalent
type. Dispose of this lithium battery device in accordance with local, state (or province), and Federal (or
country) solid waste requirements.
