They only temporarily stop UV pigment penetration while allowing the invisible harmful chemicals to pass through, where they are trapped next to the skin, improving contact and associated risk.

Page 15 image-1651748621917.png Image not found or type unknown Once printed, you can check for any print issues from lines missing in the test print. Check the previous test print if possible to see any print heads that are commonly out, you may not be able to fix them.
Page 16: Cleaning The Print Heads
Cleaning & Maintenance Cleaning the Printheads Why? The reason for cleaning the printheads is to remove any dust or grit the heads may pick up, which results in a poor print finish and potentially damaged printheads, which are expensive! The cleaning process: IMPORTANT Step 1: For personal safety, we recommend that the operator always wear nitrile gloves, a protective apron, and safety glasses with side shields when handling inks.
Page 17 Step 6: Press the third button away from you on the right-hand side to activate the vacuum. Use the head vacuum found on the left-hand side [make sure it's connected correctly] and clean it with the white fibreless cloth before use. Step 7: Gently slide the vacuum along the print heads from left to right, making sure you get the slots of the vacuum piece into the printhead grooves.
Page 19 Cleaning & Maintenance Changing ink When to do: An ink bag can be replaced at any time. Ink bags should be replaced if: • The printer displays an "Error: ink fill timed out" message. This does not necessarily mean that the ink bag is empty, but if you see it, check the level of ink remaining and change the bag if needed.
Page 20 Procedure: 1. Open the clear plastic door on the Ink Station. 2. Identify the ink bag to be replaced. 3. Press the quick-release coupler button at the bottom corner of the ink bag. 4. Unhook the bag from the top of the ink station. 5.

Page 22: Loading Material
Loading Material Loading Material Select the material from the rack behind the Arizona (Other materials are found in the storage through the door). Wearing gloves (to stop any finger marks from appearing). Pull the board over your head if possible and place it on to the print bed.
Page 23 We also use masking tape to help the board stay flat on the bed. If you only need to use a small section of the material, you can leave the film on partially. Simply score the film off of the section you'd like to print on. This helps keep your remaining section of material clean of any dust and marks.
Page 24 For the Océ Arizona 600 Series GT vacuum control valve handles are used to manage these zones. The printer has five control valves that determine the zones that are active when the table vacuum pump is on.
Page 26 Flatbed Operation Measuring the Head Height To measure the thickness of the material choose the guage from the shadow board. Take it to the material, and press ON. Twist the cog on top to loosen the gauge slider. Fit the material into the gauge and the screen will display the thickness in millimetres. Once you select to print a job, the pop-up screen will appear with the option to input your head height.
