generating devices, such as a motor.
3. Use the power supply specified on the nameplates of printer and option.

come off or deteriorate.
Clean the cover with a soft cloth. If the cover is very dirty, wipe it off with a cloth
moistened with water-diluted neutral detergent.
6. Handle a print head with care.

Periodic inspection and maintenance
As the intrinsic characteristics of solvent ink, the regular periodic inspection and
maintenance must be performed.
1. Clean the capping unit and the wiper blade everyday.
2. Check visually the remaining wiper cleaning liquid everyday.
3. Clean the print head every month.
4. Perform the service cleaning when leaving the printer for two weeks or more in a
power-off state.
5. Perform the head wash and the ink charge before printing again after the printer is left
for a long time.
