Scratching the encoder ruler (1) reduces the functionality of the printer.
Do not touch the encoder ruler with hard objects.

15.4 Cleaning

The print heads can dry out as a result of improper cleaning. This will lead to
decreased printing quality or even the failure of individual nozzles.
Due to soiling on the nozzle plate, the ink can be smeared on the printed
medium.
Soiled filters and soiling on the conveyor belt can lead to malfunctioning of
the exhaust and ventilation. This can cause the following damage:
 Failure of electronic components
Overheating of the UV lamps

 Collision of the print carriage with the medium due to overheating of the
conveyor belt
Soiling on the conveyor belt and on the encoder ruler reduce print quality.
Unsuitable cleaning tools, corrosive cleaning agents and the penetration of
liquids into the printer or workstation can cause damage.
Carry out all specified cleaning work.
Use only the specified cleaning tools.

15.5 Lubrication

Improper lubrication of the carriage guide and the use of the lubricating plates
past the specified usage duration shortens the service life of the bearings.
Carry out all specified service work.
