Cleaning penetrated ink
When printing on a thin cloth, the print through ink will be collected in the ditch.
Make sure to wipe up the ink frequently using waste cloth.
If left, the ink will spill out of the ditch and spatter the floor or the internal parts of the printer.
Place to wipe:
Frequeincy of wipe:
• At the end of daily operation or when replacing the media.
• If printing continuously or using a loose weave fabric, the ink is collected faster. In this
case, make sure to wipe up the ink when it gathered into liquid form.
• Spread out waste cloth in the ditch to make cleaning easier.
Replace the waste cloth when it has absorbed certain amount of ink.
Maintenance for frame components
If the frame components of the device have stained, dampen a piece of soft cloth with water
or neutral detergent diluted with water, squeeze it and wipe the frame components clean.
