Maintenance Of Ink Cartridges - TDS BN-20 Maintenance Manual

Maintenance of Ink Cartridges

Ensure the following procedures are carried out without fail. The ink ingredients have a tendancy
to separate and settle. Metallic silver ink is particularly prone to separation; if left, such separated
ingredients will dry and harden, and this may cause malfunction.
 Always gently shake a new cartridge before installing.
 Every day before the start of operations, remove only the metallic silver ink cartridge,
gently shake and reinstall.
Cleaning
Note: Never use gasoline, alcohol, thinner or any other inflammable substances. All such
substances are a fire risk.
Daily cleaning: wipe off any ink and grime on the media path. The pinch rollers, grit rollers, and
platen are particularly subject to grime. Use a neutral detergent diluted with water, and a damp
cloth to wipe off ink and grime.
