AP-75197– Rev. 1.2
1.2 MANAGING VOC’S
When Mutoh printers with (low)-Solvent inks are used, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) will be released.
In order to protect human health and the environment, VOCs must be managed. This means VOCs need to
be controlled and compliance with all local, state and federal environmental, occupational health and safety
regulations on VOCs in the atmosphere and in the workplace is needed.
The amount of released VOCs depends on multiple factors: room volume, unforced ventilation, print mode,
number of printers in the room, heaters settings, kind
of media, use of extra dryers, print production
Because of differences in local regulations and working conditions, it is recommended to consult a local
consultancy agency to determine the regulations involved. An acknowledged laboratory can determine the
total amount of released VOCs in the atmosphere and in the workplace. Consequently they can determine if
forced ventilation for occupational health and air pollution control devices are needed. An engineering firm
could be consulted on the installation of the ventilation system where prints are produced, handled and
stored.
1.3 HANDLING INKS AND WASTE
Before handling inks / cleaning fluids and their waste, please read the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS)
and the labels for important health, safety and environmental information carefully. All safety data sheets are
periodically updated. These sheets and their translations can be found on
www.mutoh.eu/Products/Downloads/extra/msds
.
Only use original manufacturers ink and appropriate cleaning liquid. Before installing an ink holder,
shake it gently. Doing so will preserve print quality.
When ink is moved from a cold place to a warm place, keep the ink for three hours or more in the new
printing environment before printing.
Do not disassemble ink holder. Otherwise, ink may get in your eyes or on your skin. A disassembled
ink holder cannot be used either.
When refilling ink, use original manufacturers ink. Ou
r Mutoh printers are designed to use original ink. If
you use ink which are not produced by the original manufacturer :
±
printing might become blurred and the end of the ink in the holder might not be detected correctly
±
Any problems caused by using an ink holder other than those recommended above will not be
covered by the warranty, and repair expenses will be paid by the customer.
For handling waste : see section 13 on the MSDS-sheet
Inks / Waste
±
General advice: wear safety glasses and gloves especially when handling the waste ink.
±
After spill: remove contaminated clothing.
±
After inhalation: if difficulties occur after vapour/aerosol has been inhaled, remove to fresh air and
seek medical attention.
±
After skin contact: wash thoroughly with soap and water.
±
After eye contact: wash affected eyes for at least 15 minutes under running water while the eyelids
are held open.
±
After swallowing: rinse mouth and drink plenty of water. Never induce vomiting.
