Handling Inks
The Arizona 600 printer uses solvent-based pigmented inks in cyan (C), magenta (M),
yellow (Y), black (K), light magenta (LM) and light cyan (LC) in 1-gallon (3.78-liter)
replaceable supply bottles for 5500-series and 6600-series inks. The 440-series inks are in
3-liter bottles. Bottles should be visually checked daily. Read and practice the safety
guidelines as outlined in the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for each ink, and post
the document in the work area as required by prevailing law.
For personal safety, the operator must wear the following safety gear when handling inks:
• Rubber gloves
• Protective apron
• NIOSH-approved respirator (half-mask organic vapor respirator)
• Safety glasses with side shields
The liquid ink and its fumes are combustible. They may also cause eye and skin irritation
upon prolonged or repeated contact. Ink may be absorbed through the skin and the fumes
cause respiratory system irritation and nervous system impairment.
