Remove Ink From the Table

Introduction
How often you need to perform these procedures will vary, depending on printer usage
and work habits.
Remove Ink from Table
Clean ink from the table whenever necessary. Once UV ink is cured, the best method for
removing it from the table is to use a scraper (it is also possible to achieve good results
with a razor blade that is set into a handle/holder). Be careful not to scratch the aluminium
surface of the table when scraping off the cured ink.
Unplug Vacuum Holes
The vacuum holes in the table surface may become plugged with ink and thus reduce the
efficiency of the vacuum. To clear the holes, use an 1.5mm diameter rigid material (e.g.,
a paper clip) to ream them out, as required (this is not likely a daily task, but must be
performed as needed).

Note:
When scraping ink off the table be sure to remove all of the dry ink particles. Use a
portable vacuum and then a wet lint-free cloth to ensure no debris is left on the table
that could be picked up by a printhead.
