Introduction

Safety information

WARNING: Observe these general safety precautions when operating the GERBER
SOLARA UV2 Ink Jet Printer.

Electrical

♦ Use the supplied line conditioner to obtain the specified voltage:
♦ Domestic: 208-220 V AC ± 10%, 60 Hz ± 5%, 7.9 amp nominal (11.9 amp peak).
♦ International: 230 VAC ± 10%, 50 Hz ± 5%, 7.1 amp nominal (11.1 amp peak).
♦ Use the correct power cord; do not use a damaged power cord.
♦ Use an outlet with a ground terminal or electric shock can occur.
♦ Turn printer off and unplug it from the power source before servicing.
♦ Unplug any communications cables before servicing.
♦ Never open covers affixed by screws unless directed by Gerber service personnel. Doing
so may result in electric shock or damage to the printer.
♦ Remove any electrostatic charge from your clothing or body by touching a metal part of
the printer before servicing. Electronic components (such as memory) may malfunction
if exposed to electrostatic charge.

Ink handling and disposal

♦ Do not use inks other than GERBER SOLARA UV2 Inks. Using other inks will void the
warranty and will damage the printer.
♦ Consult the GERBER SOLARA UV2 Ink MSDS for proper handling, disposal, and safety
recommendations. Also consult local requirements.
♦ When handling ink cartridges and waste ink, be careful that the ink does not get on your
skin or in your eyes. If it does, rinse your eyes with copious amounts of water and wash
your skin with soap and water. Seek medical attention if irritation persists.
♦ Do not disassemble cartridges. Ink could get on your skin or in your eyes.
♦ Dispose empty ink cartridges, waste ink, lint-free wipes, and used swabs according to
local laws and regulations.

Printer ventilation

♦ Do not obstruct printer exhaust fans.

Personal precautions

♦ Be careful when reaching into the printer to open the head shutter or swab the print
head. The UV lamp assemblies and interior surfaces of the printer may be hot.
♦ Be careful not to pinch fingers in covers, pinch wheels, and material feed system.
♦ Use caution when lifting heavy rolls of material.
