4.1. Routine Maintenance
Before starting maintenance, get acquainted with section 2.1 Safety and Installation Requirements .
User-performed maintenance consists in, amongst other things, periodic inspections and service
operations to keep the machine in good working order. Some operations need to be performed daily
while others every specified period of time.
Daily maintenance:
´
Check the level of ink in the bottle. If the bottle is empty, replace it - see section 3.5.2 Installing a
New Bottle of Ink (or Replacing the Empty One) .
´
It is recommended that each time the printer is switched off, the front part of the print head,
especially the nozzles and photo-detector are washed in order to remove any remaining ink. Use
a sprayer with cleaning fluid (wash-up).
Routine maintenance:
´
Every 1000 hours of operation – check that the ink filter on the bottle is clean.
´
Every 12 months of operation – check the transmissibility of the ink filter on the bottle and the
printer's air filter.

If the printer is not to be used for a longer time (over 2 weeks), secure the printer as described in
section 5.1 Storing the Printer .
