Cautions And Notes - MIMAKI JV33-260 Operation Manual

CAUTIONS and NOTES

Handling of ink cartridges
• Use the JV33 genuine ink. Remember that the user shall
be filled for a repair to correct any damage resulting from
the use of ink other than the exclusive type.
• The machine does not operate with any ink other than the
JV33 genuine ink.
• Do not use the JV33 genuine ink with other printers, as
doing so may cause damage to such machines.
• Never refill the ink cartridge with ink. Refilled ink cartridge
can cause a trouble. Remember that MIMAKI assumes no
responsibility for any damage caused by the use of the ink
cartridge replenished with ink.
• If the ink cartridge is moved from a cold place to a warm
place, leave it in the room temperature for three hours or
more before using it.
• Open the ink cartridge just before installing it in the
machine. If it is opened and left for an extended period of
time, normal printing performance of the machine may not
be ensured.
• Make sure to store ink cartridges in a cool and dark place.
• Store ink cartridges and waste ink tank in a place that is out
of the reach of children.
• Be sure to thoroughly consume the ink in the ink cartridge,
once it is opened, within three months. If an extended
period of time has passed away after opening the cartridge
tank, printing quality would be poor.
• Neither pound the ink cartridge nor shake it violently, as
doing so can cause leakage of ink.
• Do not touch or stain the contacts of the ink cartridge, as
doing so may cause damage to the print circuit board.
• Waste ink is equivalent to waste oil of industrial waste.
Request an industrial waste disposal company for disposal
of waste ink.
Warning
Front cover and lever
• Never open the front cover or raise the lever during
printing. Opening the cover or raising the lever will abort
printing.
Handling of media
• Use media recommended by MIMAKI to ensure reliable,
high-quality printing.
• Set the heater temperature to meet the characteristics of
the media.
Set the temperature of the Pre-heater, Print heater and
Post-heater according to the type and characteristics of the
media used. Automatic temperature setting can be made
on the operation panel by setting the profile on the
dedicated RIP. For setting on the RIP, refer to the
instruction manual for your RIP.
• Pay attention to the expansion and contraction of the
media.
Do not use media immediately after unpacking. The media
can be affected by the room temperature and humidity, and
thus it may expand and contract.The media have to be left
in the atmosphere in which they are to be used for 30
minutes or more after unpacked.
• Do not use curled media.
The use of curled media can not only cause a media jam
but also affect print quality.
Straighten the sheet of media, if significantly curled, before
using it for printing. If a regular-sized coated sheet of media
is rolled and stored, the coated side has to face outside.
Protection of media from dust
• Store media in a bag. Wiping off dust accumulated on
media will adversely affect the media due to static
electricity.
• When leaving the workshop after the working hours, do not
leave any media on the roll hanger. If any media is left on
the roll hanger, it can get dusty.
