Maintaining
Be sure to perform maintenance of the machine periodically or whenever necessary so that the machine can be
used with its inherent accuracy for a long time.
Precautions in cleaning
Pay attentions to the following items when the machine is maintained.
Notes on cleaning solution
Use the cleaning liquid dedicated for the ink being used.
• When using the cleaning solution, be sure to wear the supplied protective glasses.
• The ink contains an organic solvent. When performing cleaning, be sure to wear gloves so that no ink
will come in contact with your skin.
• Never disassemble the machine. Disassembling it can result in electric shock hazards or damage to the
machine.
Before starting maintenance work, be sure to turn off the power switch and unplug the power cable;
otherwise, an unexpected accident may occur.
• Prevent moisture from entering the machine. Moisture inside the machine can cause electric shock
hazards or damage to the machine.
• To ensure reliable ink jetting, it is necessary to have the machine perform ejection of a fine amount of ink
(flushing) periodically while printing (output) is suspended for an extended period of time.
• When printing is to be suspended for a long time, turn off only the power switch in the front of the
machine; leave the main power switch at the rear of the machine turned ON (in the position of | ) and
leave the power cable connected.
• If organic solvent ink is mixed with water or alcohol, coagulation occurs.
Do not wipe the nozzle face of the heads, the wiper or caps with water or alcohol. Doing so can cause
nozzle clogging or machine failure.
• Do not use benzine, thinner, or any chemical agent containing abrasives. Such materials can deteriorate
or deform the surface of covers.
• Do not apply lubricating oil or the like to any part inside the machine. Doing so can cause printing failure.
• Be careful not to allow the cleaning solution or ink to adhere to covers, as this may cause deterioration or
discoloring of the surface of covers.
