Machine Maintenance
In order to keep the machine in a good working condition, one must regularly perform the following tasks:
•
Before printing, one should issue the nozzle test command to check print head
’s nozzles
status. In
case, nozzles are blocked or test result is not good, then one should perform head cleaning process
to clean print head’s nozzles (Refer to Head Cleaning section)
.
•
Print head nozzle surface area should be cleaned by following the instructions given on the Head
Cleaning section for a long life.
•
Every day after working, one should check the condition of print head nozzles by performing the
nozzle test. Additionally, print head nozzles should be kept out from light to avoid the dry out
situation.
•
Weekly perform thorough cleaning for the workshop to maintain a good working environment;
remove dust from equipment; clean all transmission parts and give transmission bearings lubricating
oil.
•
Monthly carefully examine equipment pares and sum up the machine parts situation.
•
Every three months the ink system should be thoroughly cleaned in order to keep good printing
quality.
Equipment Cleaning
Follow the below given instruction during the equipment cleaning process:
•
Avoid splashing liquid and dropping on/in the circuit board or the power line.
•
Should clean the circuit boards using the low-power hair dryer.
•
Sensitive devices, like sensors and raster, should be cleaning using the liquid solution provided with
the machine.
•
Use clean cloth to clean up the dust and residual oil on the tracks.
Power System Maintenance
Follow the below given instructions to perform the power system maintenance:
•
Static electricity and ground wire should always be checked whether loose or disconnection.
•
Towlines (containing power lines and data lines) should be inspected regularly for broken links, false
links or several lines twisted together.
•
One should regularly monitor the power supply system as due to long working hours, the machine
can behave abnormally such as output voltage of power-supplying may change, the power potential
overheating temperature, ageing of wires, etc.
•
Some parts of the machine viz. UV lamps and motor generate lots of heat during working. Thus, one
should arrange proper ventilation for long life of the machine.
