Flushing of pigmented system
On a pigmented system the print head is flushed from the circulation of the pump. Replace the ink
in the ink tank with cleaner and let the system print. Refill with fresh cleaner. By ongoing prints the
print head and the nozzle plate are flushed since cleaner instead of ink runs through the system.
Also read the user manual of your ink supply unit.

Maintenance
For external cleaning of the system no specific skills are required. Cleaning and flushing of the
print head (see chapter
9.3 Flushing of print head
is only to be carried out by trained personal.
The print head is made of special aluminium material. It has to be cleaned with the cleaner that is
determined for the ink in use. To avoid scratches no aggressive cleaning detergents should be
utilized.
Avoid contact plastic parts with solvent. This also
includes cables. Solvent can damage the plastic.
Cleaning of hoses, cables and wires can lead to static
charge which can cause a spark. Therefore only a
water soaked cloth should be used to avoid static
charge.
