Precautions regarding
maintenance
Note the following points when cleaning and
replacing parts.
Caution:
❏ Store ink cartridges, Cleaning Cartridge, ink
cleaner, grease, and waste ink in a location
out of reach of children.
❏ During maintenance, wear protective
clothing, including protective eyewear, gloves,
and a mask.
If ink, waste ink, ink cleaner, or grease
contact your skin or enter your eyes or
mouth, take the following actions:
❏ If fluid adheres to your skin, immediately
wash it off using large volumes of soapy
water. Consult a physician if the skin
appears irritated or is discolored.
❏ If fluid enters your eyes, rinse
immediately with water. Failure to
observe this precaution could result in
bloodshot eyes or mild inflammation. If
problems persist, consult with a physician.
❏ If fluid enters your mouth, consult a
physician immediately.
❏ If fluid is swallowed, do not force the
person to vomit, and consult with a
physician immediately. If the person is
forced to vomit, fluid may get caught in
the trachea which can be dangerous.
❏ After replacing the Waste Ink Bottle or using
the ink cleaner, wash your hands and gargle
thoroughly.
❏ Remove the media from the printer before
proceeding.
❏ Never touch the belts, circuit boards, or any parts
that do not require cleaning. Failure to observe
this precaution could result in malfunction or
reduced print quality.
❏ Use only the supplied cleaning sticks or sticks
contained in a maintenance kit. Other types of
sticks that produce lint will damage the print head.
❏ Always use fresh cleaning sticks. Re-using sticks
can make stains even harder to remove.
❏ Do not touch the tips of the cleaning sticks. Oil
from your hands could damage the print head.
❏ Do not use water or alcohol to clean around the
print head or the caps and so on. Ink congeals
when mixed with water or alcohol.
❏ Touch a metallic object before starting work to
discharge any static electricity.
Daily Cleaning
When lint, dust, or ink adheres to the platen heater or
the media edge plates, it could cause clogged nozzles
or ink drops to occur.
To maintain optimum printing quality, we
recommend cleaning before starting work every day.
Caution:
❏ The heaters and media edge plate may be hot;
observe all necessary precautions. Failure to
observe the necessary precautions could result
in burns.
❏ Be careful not to trap your hands or fingers
when opening or closing the front cover.
Failure to observe this precaution could result
in injury.
c
Important:
When cleaning inside the printer, do not use ink
cleaner. Failure to observe this precaution could
result in damaged parts.
