Safety Information

About FB7600 Printer

The FB7600 printer is a sheet-fed UV industrial flatbed digital printing press. It 

is mainly composed of the main chassis, loading/unloading system, flatbed 

printing table, printing bridge, and UV curing system. The machine prints on 

sheet-fed media using UV ink. 
There are two methods of loading substrate sheets: 3/4 Automatic loading and 

Manual loading. Before starting a print run, the machine operator selects the 

loading method in the machine software.

3/4 Automatic loading

 - the substrates are placed by the machine operator 

on the loader table one by one and pushed towards the loader entrance. 
The loader aligns and feeds the substrates onto the printing table. If there is 

more than one copy, the second substrate is placed immediately after the 

loader has returned to its home position, even if the first substrate is still 

being printed.
When the printing cycle is complete, the system automatically unloads the 

first substrate and stacks it on the unloader lift. Simultaneously, it feeds the 

second substrate onto the printing table.

Manual loading

 - using the machine software, the operator moves the 

printing table to the manual loading position and manually places the 

substrate sheet on the printing table against the registration pins. The 

operator presses the red button; the system activates the vacuum to the 

printing table and lowers the registration pins. 
The operator starts printing and after the print run is complete, manually 

unloads the substrate from the printing table.

Installation and disassembly of the machine should be done by HP service 

personnel only. Recycling and disposal should be done according to the local 

laws and regulations. 
Although the product has been tested against safety standards that cover the 

intended use and the reasonably foreseeable misuse, the operator must avoid 

any misuse and always follow all the safety recommendation contained in this 

guide.
Maintenance and replacement of spare parts should be carried out only by HP 

service personnel, or by a person who has been trained and authorized by HP 

to maintain the machine.
