Maintenance Guide 

 

Automatic Maintenance Function 

Note: 

This machine has the function to automatically perform periodical maintenance tasks, e.g. 

to prevent the print heads from drying out. To ensure the maintenance is properly carried out, 
please observe the following points: 

 

Make sure that the main power is on at all times. 

 

Never leave the front cover open for long periods. 

Maintenance Schedule 

Carry out maintenance on a daily basis. 

To  keep  this  machine  in  tip-top  condition,  make  sure  that  daily  maintenance  is  actually 
performed every day. 

Some maintenance tasks need to be carried out periodically. 

To maintain reliable output conditions, some maintenance tasks need to be carried out at least 
once a month. 

Switch the sub power on at least every 2 weeks 

Switch the sub power on at least every 2 weeks. When the sub power is on, operations to prevent 
the print heads from drying out are automatically performed. If the machine is not used for a 
long  period of time,  print  heads  may be  damaged.  It  is  important to  include  this  task  in  your 
maintenance schedule. 

Maintain the temperature and humidity within the specified range 

Even when the machine is not in use, maintain the temperature between 5 to 40 degrees Celsius, 
with a relative humidity of 20 to 80%, with no condensation. Failure to keep the temperature and 
humidity within the specified range may cause the machine to malfunction.
