5.
Clean the ink from bottom of the carriage.
Avoid touching the printheads (see figure below).
CAUTION
Use only nitrile gloves that have been checked for chemical resistance. In general, a
minimum 0.5mm or thicker nitrile glove is acceptable. Use the gloves one time only,
and replace them immediately if they are punctured or degraded. Do not re-use them
if they are removed.
Chemicals in UV ink begin to permeate nitrile gloves in less than 10 minutes. While
this action may not be visible, changing contaminated gloves should occur every few
minutes. These penetrating chemicals have no pigment so they are not visible;
therefore just because you don’t have pigment on the glove or your skin doesn’t mean
that exposure has not occurred.
6.
Close the access door.
Do NOT close if you are going to swab the printheads next.
