Chapter 1 Before Use

Caution in handling of ink packs

• Use genuine ink packs for this machine. This
machine functions by recognizing the genuine ink
packs. In case of troubles caused by modified ink
packs or the like, it shall be out of the warranty
even within the warranty period.
• If the ink pack 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
pack, 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 packs in a cool and dark
place.
• Store ink packs 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 packs.
• When you removed the ink pack from the seat
before it ends, wipe ink adhering to inside of the
connector part of the ink pack with a cotton swab
etc. If ink adhering to inside of the connector part
may dry out, it may cause ink leakage when using
it again.
• Do not shake ink packs violently. This may result
in ink leakage from the ink packs.
• Never refill the ink packs with ink. This may result
in troubles.
MIMAKI will not bear any responsibility for any
damage caused by the use of the ink packs
refilled with ink.
• Do not disassemble the ink packs.

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.
