Maintenance
Maintain the machine regularly or as necessary so that its accuracy will be maintained and it can continue to be
used for a long time.
Precautions for Maintenance

Pay attention to the following items when maintaining this machine.
• When using maintenance washing liquid for maintenance, be sure to wear the supplied protective
glasses.
• The ink contains organic solvent.When cleaning the machine, be sure to wear gloves so that no ink
will make direct contact with your skin.
• Never disassemble the machine.Disassembling it can result in electric shock hazards or damage to
the machine.
Before maintenance, be sure to turn off the power switch and main power switch, and unplug the
power cable;otherwise, an unexpected accident may occur.
• Prevent moisture from entering the machine.Moisture inside the machine can cause electric shock
hazards or damage to the machine.
• To ensure stable ink jetting, it is necessary for the machine to eject a small amount of ink (flushing)
regularly when a printing (outputting) operation has not been performed for a long time.
• When the machine is not to be used for a long time, turn off only the power switch on the front side,
leave the main power switch at the side turned ON (in the position of | ), and leave the power cable
connected.
• If organic solvent ink is mixed with water or alcohol, coagulation is generated.
Do not wipe the nozzle face of the heads, wiper, caps, etc. with water or alcohol.Doing so can cause
nozzle clogging or machine failure.
• Do not use benzene, thinner, or any chemical agent containing an abrasive.Such materials can
deteriorate or deform the surface of the cover.
• Do not apply a lubricant, etc. to any parts inside the machine. Doing so can cause printing failure.
• Be careful that the maintenance washing liquid, ink, etc. not to stick to the cover because this may
cause the surface of the cover to deteriorate or deform.
About Maintenance washing liquid

Use the maintenance washing liquid dedicated for the ink being used.

cloth, a paper towel, etc.
• When the platen is stained with ink, wipe

it off with a paper towel containing a
small amount of maintenance washing
1
liquid for maintenance.
• Before cleaning the platen, make sure that the platen has cooled adequately.
• Because dust and dirt are easily accumulated in the slots for holding a media and cutting paper (cutter
slot), be sure to clean these parts carefully.
Cleaning of after heater cover and pre heater cover

The after heater cover and the pre heater cover are easy to be dirty because of the powder of the medium etc. 4
If it shows dirt, wipe it with a soft cloth soaked in water or waterish mild detergent and wrung.

Regular maintenance of white ink

White ink precipitates easier than other inks.
• If not printing more than two weeks, white ink may precipitate in the ink cartridge or inside of this machine.
• When an ink precipitates, the nozzle may be clogged and it can not draw normally.
• Make sure to perform periodical maintenance to avoid precipitation and to keep white ink in good condition.
• Perform the maintenance below before working once a week.
• Use the specified ink cartridge.
