Usage Precautions
When using JP-K60, JP-K69 and JP-K84 ink, the following precautions must be
observed.
Since charging and deflecting electrodes and a gutter are provided inside the print
head, if highly conductive carbon black settles on the print head mounting base (made
of insulating material), leakage can occur between these electrodes resulting in
frequent recurrence of errors. It is, therefore, important to clean inside the print head
whenever stains are detected.
After the operation is completed, sprinkle the makeup
ink on the orifice plate, the charging electrode, the
deflecting electrodes, the gutter and the mounting
base, and then clean them using the cleaning pin.

Clean carbon black and makeup ink off the
parts (including the mounting base) using
paper wipers and let the parts dry
themselves in the ambient temperature.
In the case where an abnormality arises in
the operation after the above work, there is
a possibility that carbon black still remains
on the surface of the mounting base and
creepage is caused. In this case, remove the
plus deflecting electrode, and wipe the
mounting surface clean with wipe paper to
which an makeup ink is applied.
In addition, remove the charging electrode,
and wipe the orifice plate surface clean
likewise.
When printing is frequently performed or an space between the print material and the
print head is small, ink splashes may stain the end of the print head and the print head
cover. If this condition is left as it is, the stained status will be made worse, resulting
in a print error or emergency stop. If a print error or emergency stop frequently occurs
because of stain due to ink splashes, stop the operation that is in progress and clean
the end of the print head and the print head cover. Do this in addition to the cleaning to
be performed at the end of each daily work.
