• The solvent ink contains organic solvent. If ink has stuck to your skin or clothes, immediately wash it off
with detergent and water. If you have gotten ink in your eyes, immediately wash your eyes with a lot of
clean water for at least 15 minutes. In doing so, also wash the back of the eyelids to rinse the ink away
completely. Then, consult a doctor as soon as possible.
• Use genuine ink cartridges for this machine. This machine functions by recognizing the genuine ink
cartridges. In case of trouble caused by modified ink cartridges or the like, it shall be out of the warranty
even within the warranty period.
• When the ink cartridge has been moved from a cold place to a warm one, leave it at room temperature
for three hours or more before using it.
• Be sure to thoroughly use up the ink in the ink cartridge within three months of it being opened. If an
extended period of time has passed after opening the cartridge, printing quality will deteriorate.
• Make sure to store ink cartridges in a cool and dark place.
• Store ink cartridges in a place that is out of the reach of children.

• Never refill the ink cartridge with ink. A refilled ink cartridge can cause trouble. Remember that MIMAKI
assumes no responsibility for any damage caused by the use of an ink cartridge refilled with ink.
• Do not touch or stain the contacts of the ink cartridge because doing so can cause damage to the print
