Manual Cleaning

When Manual Cleaning Is Necessary

The print heads are important components that discharge ink. They require periodic and appropri-
ate maintenance. It is important to perform manual cleaning with the appropriate timing.
When there is a lot of scattered ink mist and the inside of the machine is soiled
Perform this cleaning every day when frequently printing with the print heads at a distance from the
print surface or when ink is emitted to locations that protrude from the print surface. If the scat-
tered ink mist is allowed to harden, it may cause malfunctions.
Perform manual cleaning once a month or more
To keep a stable printing condition at all times, perform manual cleaning once a month or more.
When symptoms that cannot be improved with powerful cleaning occur
When any of the symptoms given below occur and powerful cleaning is not effective, perform man-
ual cleaning.
Dot drop-out/Dot dis-
placement
Dust or other foreign
matter adheres to the
print heads and impedes
correct ink discharge.
