Oce Arizona 640 GT, User Manual

Page: 9 / 230

Safety Information
This manual has three sections that contain details on safety when handling ink and using the
printer. Also, where applicable, cautions and warnings are used throughout this manual to draw
your attention to safety precautions.
• "Safety Guidelines for Ink Materials" offers advice in the proper handling of UV inks;
• "Interlock Safety System" explains the safety features built in to the printer that prevent and
minimize access to Mechanical, Electrical, Thermal and UV hazards; and
• "UV Curing System Safety" presents warning about the dangers of exposure to UV light. Some
of the material from that section are duplicated here.
Customer Service
If your printer malfunctions and you are unable to resolve the problem, field service technicians
can be dispatched to your site to conduct repairs. Service visits are paid for by the customer,
either under a maintenance agreement, by purchase order or prepayment. Time and material
rates are charged for any service not covered under a maintenance agreement. Before calling to
report a problem, gather as much information about the problem as possible and have it ready to
provide to your customer care center. The more information you can provide initially, the more
quickly the problem can be corrected.
Statement of Foreseen Use
The Océ Arizona flatbed inkjet printers are intended for use in a commercial print shop
environment. Factory-authorized training is made available for operators at the time of
installation. The printers use piezo printing technology and UV curable inks to produce outdoor-
durable output. They can print directly onto rigid and flexible media of up to 50.8mm (2.0 inch)
thickness. The printer holds the media stationary while the printhead assembly moves across to
create the print, eliminating image skew problems often associated with rigid stock feed systems.
With the Roll Media Option installed the printers can also print on various roll media. See your
local representative or visit the Océ Media Guide for more details on recommended media.

Responsibilities of the Operator
The printer operator must be properly trained. Océ provides training for the operator in the use of
the printer hardware and software at the time of installation. It is the customer's responsibility to
ensure that only properly trained personnel operate the printer. Operators must be fully versed in
the operation of ONYX Thrive® or ProductionHouse® . For any operator unfamiliar with these
applications, ONYX training is required. Training courses are available; contact your local Océ
representative.
The operator or other trained personnel are expected to handle all user maintenance as detailed
in the User Manual, and also replacement of consumable parts (except print heads). If your site
has a technician in charge of printer maintenance, that person is the optimal candidate. While any
trained operator may perform routine maintenance, the best maintenance results from familiarity
with the printer's internal operation and history.
The printer requires daily printhead maintenance to ensure the highest print quality and longer
life for the printheads. The printer design provides you easy access to perform this simple task
and it is essential that printhead maintenance is performed at least once a day, and more
frequently if needed. Periodic cleaning must be scheduled for some components on a regular
basis. A few minutes spent cleaning also helps to ensure optimal printer function and the highest
quality prints.
