Chapter 1 Before Use
Capping station
• Be sure to wear the attached goggles in cleaning
within the capping station to protect your eyes
against ink. Otherwise, you may get ink in your
eyes.
The capping station consists of the ink caps, the wiper for
cleaning the heads, etc.
The ink caps prevent the nozzles in the heads from drying
up.
The wiper cleans the nozzles in the heads.
The wiper is consumable. If the wiper is deformed or the
media is stained, replace the wiper with a new one.

P.4-24)
Pinch rollers and Feed rollers
• Keep the pinch rollers lifted up when this machine
is not in use. If the pinch rollers are left lowered for
an extended period of time, they can be deformed
and fail to securely retain the media.
This machine retains the media with the pinch rollers and
feed rollers. During printing operation, the feed rollers
feed the media forward.

Connecting Cables
Connecting the LAN cable
When connecting LAN cable, be sure to follow the note
below:
• Directly connect the machine to a PC with a LAN
cable.
• Surely insert LAN cable until clicking noise
sounds.
• Do not plug in or unplug any cable during data
transferring.
Connecting USB2.0 Interface Cable
Connect
the
PC
and
USB2.0interface cable.
• Your RIP must be compatible with USB 2.0.
• Contact a RIP maker near your location or our
office when the USB2.0 interface is not attached to
the PC.
Notes on USB 2.0 Interface
• Since the connection to a LAN cable is
recommended in this machine, the USB2.0
connection may not satisfy the specification of
some print mode.
• Your RIP must be compatible with USB 2.0.
Notes on peripheral devices in USB high speed
mode
When a peripheral device (USB memory or USB HDD) to
be operated in USB high speed mode is connected to the
same personal computer that a Tx500P machine is
connected to, the USB device may not be recognized.
When a Tx500P is connected to the personal computer to
which an external HDD is connected via USB, the speed
of data output to the Tx500P may drop. That can cause
the head unit to stop temporarily at the right or left end
during printing.
