THE TYPE USED IN THE PRINTER.
WARNING: POTENTIALLY LETHAL VOLTAGES ARE PRESENT WITHIN THE PRINTHEAD. BE SURE
ALL POWER IS SWITCHED OFF BEFORE THE PRINTHEAD IS
OPENED FOR INSPECTION AND CLEANING.
Print head Cleaning Procedure
While wearing approved, solvent resistant gloves: Remove the print head cover tube and hold the print
head as shown below. Place a suitable container underneath and wash the entire printed circuit board
(PCB) surface with the appropriate solvent. Do not use the wrong solvent; make sure it is the solvent
corresponding to the ink type being used in the printer.
Simply squirt the solvent in short bursts onto the affected parts with a short delay between bursts to allow
ink to dissolve. The surplus solvent will run down the print head and can be collected in the container for
disposal.
Allow the print head to dry completely by letting it stand for a few minutes. Do not dry the print head with a
cloth or towel as this may leave fibers that could interfere with the printed drops. Particular care should be
taken to ensure that the space between the nozzle and charge electrode is free of solvent. If not, it can
usually be removed by inverting the wash bottle and blowing off the excess solvent.
WARNING: MOST INK BASES ARE FLAMMABLE. IT IS THEREFORE IMPORTANT
TO DISPOSE OF THE WASTE CLEANING FLUID IN ACCORDANCE WITH LOCAL
REGULATIONS.
CAUTION: DO NOT BE TEMPTED TO IMMERSE THE PRINTHEAD IN SOLVENT OR
AN ULTRASONIC BATH. THIS MAY DAMAGE THE PRINTHEAD AND WILL VOID THE
WARRANTY
