This section describes what is required for printer maintenance.
Equipment
• Foam Tipped Swab (3010118211)

CAUTION
Wear gloves when contact with ink or maintenance materials is possible. Gloves should always
overlap sleeves. Follow the ink related Safety Data Sheets (SDS) guidelines carefully in order to
ensure maximum safety. For example use Ansell Microflex 93-260 gloves, which offer a
protection against UV inks and flush up to one hour. Pollution with other chemicals can shorten
the protection time against UV inks and flush.
