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.
