Request for daily care

Inkjet plotter is the precision machine that has highly delicate mechanism. Especially, little dust and 
paper powder may have effect on a head nozzle, and may not perform normal printing.
To use the inkjet plotter in good condition, we recommend the following daily care.

If not cleaning the machine for a long time, problems may occur on the print as follows. Please under-
stand the purpose of the maintenance well, and clean the machine properly. 

To avoid those problems and to print comfortable, clean the machine frequently as indicated on this 
manual. (Refer to Daily care on this manual.)
