QS Series Basic Operator's Guide
Daily
To keep your printer performing at its best, it must be
cleaned and calibrated at least once a day. EFI recommends
performing these tasks at the beginning of each day.
These procedures should take about 30 minutes to complete.
1. Clean the front and rear media hold down rollers with
isopropyl alcohol.
2. Check the filter and water trap on the incoming air
supply system. Empty or replace as necessary.
3. Check the waste tank fluid level. Empty or replace as
necessary.
4. Check the solvent tank fluid level. Fill as necessary.
5. Clean the purge wiper and vacuum pads using SCAQMD
maintenance fluid.
6. When you’re done, enter the date, time and your initials
in the Maintenance Log.
Cleaning procedures
Your QS Series printer contains static-sensitive electronic
components and a precision ink-delivery system. Take great
care when cleaning the printer. Specific considerations for
cleaning your printer include,
1. Always perform the lockout/tagout procedure before
cleaning the electronics or opening the carriage enclosure.
2. Use only EFI-approved, lint-free, clean room-quality
cloths when cleaning the jet pack surfaces.
3. Do not use water. Water can short-circuit the electrical
components and cause corrosion to mechanical parts.
4. Do not use acid or abrasive products.
Weekly
These procedures should take about 60 minutes to complete.
1. Clean ink residue off the UV lens with an EFI-approved
clean room wipe and isopropyl alcohol.
2. Clean ink residue off the light shield trays with isopropyl
alcohol.
