Notes when using the printer
Note the following points when using this printer to
avoid breakdowns, malfunctions, and print quality
decline.
❏
When using the printer, follow the operating
temperature and humidity range described in the
"Specifications Table".
U
Note, however, that the desired results may not be
achieved if the temperature and humidity are
within the limits for the printer but not within
those for the media. Be sure the operating
conditions suit the media. For more information,
see the documentation supplied with the media.
Also, when operating in dry areas, air conditioned
environment, or under direct sunlight, maintain
the appropriate humidity.
❏
Make sure the work space is kept clean. If dust or
lint enter into the printer, it could damage the
printer, clog the print head nozzles, or cause the
quality of media feeding to decline.
❏
Avoid using the printer in locations with heat
sources or that are exposed to direct draughts
from ventilators or air conditioners. The print
head nozzles could dry out and clog.
❏
Use the printer in a location that is sufficiently
ventilated.
❏
The print head may not be capped (i.e., may not
move to the right-hand side) if an error occurs
and the printer is turned off without first
resolving the error. Capping is a function for
automatically covering the print head with a cap
(lid) to prevent the print head from drying out. In
this case, turn on the power and wait a while until
capping is performed automatically.
❏
When the power is on, do not remove the power
plug or cut the power at the breaker. Otherwise,
the print head may not be capped properly. In this
case, turn on the power and wait a while until
capping is performed automatically.
❏
Do not bend or tug the waste ink tube. Ink could
spill inside or around the printer.
❏
As well as being expended during printing, ink is
used during Head Cleaning and other
maintenance operations required to keep the print
head in working order.
Be sure that the Waste Ink Bottle is placed
whenever the printer is on.
❏
For stable color printing, maintain a constant
room temperature of 15 to 25 ˚C (59 to 77 ˚F).
Notes when not using the
printer
If you are not using it, note the following points when
storing the printer. If it is not stored correctly, you may
not be able to print properly the next time it is used.
