Measures When the Printer Is Not in Use for a Prolonged Period
Be sure to follow the instrucons shown below when the printer is not in use for a prolonged period.
• Empty the drain bole.
If you know that you will not use the machine for a prolonged period, empty the drain bole. When the main
power is on, the machine periodically performs automac maintenance in which uid is discharged.
The drain bole is lled when the following periods elapse. Leaving the drain bole as-is will lead to the dis-
charged uid overowing.
• Approximately 2 weeks aer the message "EMPTY DRAIN BOTTLE" is displayed
P. 226「If the Discharged Fluid Disposal Message Appears」
• Approximately 150 days aer the drain bole is emped
P. 227「If the Drain Bole Exceeds Its Capacity Limit」
• Do not empty the ink or cleaning liquid.
Periodically performed automac maintenance discharges ink and cleaning liquid. Install a cleaning liquid
pouch and ink pouches with a sucient amount remaining. If ink or cleaning liquid is empty, automac main-
tenance becomes impossible.

• Switch on the sub power once a month.
Switch on the sub power once a month. When you turn on the power, the machine automacally performs
operaons such as those to keep the print heads from drying out. Leaving the machine unused for a prolonged
period may damage the print heads, so be sure to switch on the power to perform these automac opera-
ons.
• Keep the machine at a constant temperature and relave humidity.
Even when the machine is not in use, keep it at a temperature of 5 to 40°C (41 to 104°F) and a relave humidi-
ty of 20 to 80% (with no condensaon). Temperatures that are too high may degrade the ink and cause mal-
funcons. Temperatures that are too low may cause the ink to freeze and damage the print heads.
