Avoid Solvent Fumes
The co-existence of solvent printers with Arizona 1300 UV ink printers has resulted in printhead
reliability issues. In particular, we have noticed a direct correlation between permanent nozzle
outs and the presence of solvent fumes near the printer.
We have encountered nozzle outs in environments where UV ink-based printers are positioned in
the same room as solvent ink-based printers. We strongly recommend that UV ink-based printers
are kept in a separate room from solvent printers.
Shock and Vibration
The Arizona 1300 printers function normally in a typical print shop environment. Excessive
vibrations generated from heavy machinery such as shears or punches may affect print quality
and are not considered part of an acceptable operating environment. It may be necessary to
consult a third party to isolate the source of such vibrations.
Canon recommends that the printer is installed on a stiff, well-supported floor (a concrete floor is
ideal). A poorly supported floor can transmit vibration and shock to the printer from other
equipment or sources. In some cases, it may be necessary to consult a third party to recommend
building improvements to reduce the effects of shock and vibration.
NOTE
The Arizona 1300 XT printers must be installed on a solid, non-flexible floor. Concrete or a
surface which is equally solid is required.
Storage
These specifications apply to all crated printers.
• Storage Temperature: 0ºC to +35ºC (32ºF to +95ºF)
• Relative humidity: 10% to 90%
IMPORTANT
Crated printer should not be stored longer than 1 month in an environment with a relative
