The coder meets the following International Protection / Ingress
Protection (IP) international standards:
Enclosure: IP45 (with doors latched)
Printhead: IP43
Carton Sensor: IP65

IP65
When washing down the packaging line, take special care to protect
the coder. If dust, water, or other debris collects on the printhead,
failure can result.
1. Allow the printhead to cool down 20–30 minutes.
NOTE: DO NOT SPRAY a hot printhead with water or air. A hot
printhead is sensitive to severe temperature changes. Directly
spraying the printhead may destroy it.
2. Remove any excess supplies and Printhead Wipes from the
areas to be cleaned.
3. Use mild soap and water to wipe dust, dirt, or other debris from
the outer surface of the print station.
NOTE: Citrus-based cleaners have been found to be effective.
