Use only the genuine Domino inks, cleaners and flushing fluids specifically
matched to your application. Do not use any other inks, solvents or chemicals, as
they will certainly damage the printer and may invalidate the warranty.
Check the ink level by pressing the red indicator lamp button at the top of the case
and looking through the viewing window in the front of the door. Try not to let
the ink become fully exhausted before replacement, otherwise air (which has to be
purged) can be introduced into the system from an empty bottle.
Dust from the environment (particularly cardboard, paper and fibre dust) can mix
with the jet mist on the front of the nozzle plate and form a sticky paste that
disrupts the jet pattern or can cause a complete jet blockage.
With a clean, lint-free cloth dipped in domino nozzle cleaner, wipe the front of
the nozzle plate sideways to remove any contamination. Clean the photocell
window.
Check for damage to ink and air lines in the ink compartment, as they may have
been trapped when closing the front door. Inspect external cables and tubing for
signs of chafing and splits, especially near the connectors.
Before Long Holidays
If the printer is not going to be used for more than three weeks, ensure the ink in
the system is replaced with Domino flushing fluid.
