Installation and initial operation
4. Open Ink system!
Remove the plastic ink system cover.
The ink system reservoir features a vent cap that has to be opened prior to
commissioning. This cap then remains permanently open and is only closed again if the
print head and ink system must be dismantled and, for example, relocated.
Remove the protective cap, wipe the ink away and place it in the ink system.
Check whether the red sealing ring (o-ring) is present.
Place the red sealing ring into the opening of the ink container and insert the ink
cartridge.
5. Open print head!
The front panel is protected during transport by means of a spring steel cap with a
silicone rubber strip inlay. The vent opening at the ink system reservoir is closed. This
prevents ink from leaking and air from entering during transport.
Remove the protective cap from the nozzle plate once you have opened the vent cap in
the ink system.
Now carefully wipe the nozzle plate with an absolutely dust-free cleaning pad (e.g. ML
cloth, 100% cotton - produced under clean room conditions). Move the cloth from the
bottom upwards.
6. Test print!
A test print can be run after standby is displayed.
Rinse the head if some lines are missing (described in detail in the operating
instructions).
The distance from the product, which should be print, to the nozzle plate of the print
head is important to get a clean and sharp print image. The optimal distance is 0 to 4
mm between deflector and product. An upper distance corrupts the print result,
especially with high print speed.
The higher print speed, the smaller must be the distance. With a print speed lower than
20 m/min, a distance of 5 mm between nozzle plate and product can be acceptable.
