Cautions in using this product

Do not turn the power off
Use the printer with its power turned permanently on. When you are not using the printer, always leave the power on and put
the printer into the sleep mode while not in use. In the sleep mode, the printer will periodically circulate the ink inside the printer
and carry out head cleaning automatically. If you do not put the printer into the sleep mode, the ink inside the printer could
settle out and/or coagulate, causing poor image quality or printer failure.
Important!
If you need to leave the printer unused for extended period of times (more than one month), please contact your local MUTOH
dealer.
Agitate the ink cartridges (ink bags)
Before installing a new ink cartridge (ink bag), invert the ink cartridge (ink bag) back and forth to agitate ink.
Periodical ink agitation is also required when prompted on the operation panel.
Otherwise, the ink inside the cartridges (bags) settles or coagulates and may cause poor print quality or a malfunction.
Please use this product periodically
It is recommended to use this product once a week.
