How to Remove Uncured Ink
1. Wipe up the majority of the ink with an absorbent cloth.

3. Continue to wet and wipe the surface until the cloth does not show any sign of ink colour.
How to Remove Cured Ink
1. Scrape any cured ink from the surface of the table with a scraper (or a razor blade in a
holder).
2. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove the scraped particles of ink and any other debris of the
table surface.
3. Use a lint-free cloth soaked in isopropyl alcohol to ensure that the table surface is clear of
any remaining particles.
How to Unplug Vacuum Holes
1. Identify any vacuum holes that are plugged with ink or debris.
2. With a 1.5mm diameter rigid material (e.g., a paper clip), ream out any of the holes that have
been plugged.
3. Clear any resulting debris with a vacuum cleaner or a wet lint-free cloth.
