Chapter 1 Before Use

Caution in handling of ink cartridges

• Use genuine ink cartridges for this machine. This
machine functions by recognizing the genuine ink
cartridges. In case of troubles caused by modified
ink cartridges or the like, it shall be out of the
warranty even within the warranty period.
• 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.
• 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.
• 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.
• Request an industrial waste processor for
processing of empty ink cartridges.
• Do not shake ink cartridges violently. This may
result in ink leakage from the ink cartridges.
• Never refill the ink cartridges with ink. This may
result in troubles.
MIMAKI will not bear any responsibility for any
damage caused by the use of the ink cartridges
refilled with ink.
• Do not touch or stain the contacts of the ink
cartridge. This may cause damages on printed
circuit boards.
• Do not disassemble the ink cartridges.

Caution in handling of medias

Pay attention to the followings for handling of medias.
• Use media recommended by MIMAKI to
ensure reliable, high-quality printing.
Set the heater temperature to meet the
characteristics of the media.
• 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.
This may result in paper jamming.
If a regular-sized coated sheet of media is rolled
and stored, the coated side has to face outside.
• Be careful to dusts on the edge face of the
media.
Some rolls have dusts contained in the package
gathered on the edge surface of the roll. If you
use as it is, the drawing quality may be degraded
due to nozzle missing or ink drops. Be sure to set
the roll after removing dusts adhering on the edge
face of the roll.
