Safety Precautions (Continued)
Ink and makeup handling
● When handling ink or makeup, such as replenishment or replacement, take enough
care not to spill ink or makeup.
If you spill any ink or makeup by mistake, wipe it off neatly and promptly with wiping
paper or something similar. Do not close the maintenance cover until you make sure
that the portion you have just wiped is completely dry.
You must pay particular attention when you have spilled ink or makeup inside the
printer and it is not completely dry. This is because vapors of ink or makeup will stay
inside the product and may catch on or cause a fire.
If you find it hard to wipe the printer with the power on, stop it with the maintenance
cover open. Power it down and then wipe it off again.
● If you need to clean the casing of the product with wiping paper soaked with makeup,
be sure to do so when the power is off.
Attempting to clean it with the power on will cause makeup or vapors of makeup to
enter the product, possibly catching on or causing a fire.
When the cleaning is finished, open the maintenance cover and make sure that no
makeup has entered and no vapors remain inside.
● Should you find a leak of ink or makeup inside the product while the product is
running or being maintained, wipe it off promptly with wiping paper or something
similar. Then, with the maintenance cover open, stop the product, power it down,
and repair the leak. Otherwise, contact your nearest local distributor.
Continuing operation with a leak of ink or makeup will cause an anomaly, resulting in
abnormal printing. Ink and makeup are flammable. They may therefore catch on or
cause a fire.
● Ink and makeup, their waste solution, used wiping paper and empty containers are
flammable.
Make sure that these waste disposals are kept away from a flame or arc.
