Operation

1.3
All users operating the printer must be aware of the following hazards associated with ink jet printers.
The following safety information should be made available to all personnel and is applicable to anybody
in the printer's operating environment. Only fully trained and competent personnel should operate or
maintain EC-JET printers. If you are in any doubt as to your ability to operate or maintain the printer, did
not hesitate to consult your supervisor for guidance or contact your local EC-JET distributor who will be
happy to advise you.
1. Don't smoke or use naked flames in the vicinity of the printer. The printer contains flammable inks
and solvents.
2. Always ensure that the printer electrical supply is isolated prior to performing cleaning or
maintenance activities. Lethal voltages are present in the printer cabinet and printhead when
mains power is applied which can cause death or serious injury if the correct electrical procedures
are not observed. When a main operated external alarm is connected to the external alarm socket,
this must be disconnected before any maintenance activities are carried out.
3. Only the fully trained operators or service engineers qualified to open the front ink system door to
add the ink or solvent. Only fully trained EC-JET approved service engineers qualified to open the
screen door or the back access door
4. Always check that all covers are correctly fitted and all doors are closed before you use it. If you
are not sure, ask your supervisor for guidance. Covers act as safety barriers and also ensure the
printer retains its electromagnetic compatibility.
5. It is recommended that the printer is situated at least 600 mm from floor level for your comfort.

Inks and Solvents

1.4
Whenever inks and solvents are used, safety eyeglasses to the appropriate European and International
Directives must be worn. Solvent resistant gloves must be worn when contact with inks or solvents is
likely.
The effects of solvents and inks are potentially harmful. Prior to use, ensure the printing area is properly
ventilated and the Material Safety Data Sheets have been read and fully understood. If you are unsure,
contact your supervisor for guidance.
If the Material Safety Data Sheets have not been supplied or are not available, please contact your local
EC-JET distributor. Always refer to the Material Data Safety Sheets before working with inks and
solvents.
Store all inks and solvents in original containers, in a well- ventilated cabinet and away from heat sources.
Ensure all spilt ink or ink deposits are removed immediately using the correct solvent for the ink used.
