Daily Maintenance

Maintenance of Ink Cartridges

Ensure the following procedures are carried out without fail. The ink ingredients have a tendency to separate
and settle. Metallic silver ink is particularly prone to separation; if left, such separated ingredients will dry and
harden, and this may cause a malfunction.
 Always gently shake a new cartridge before installing.
 Everyday before the start of operations, remove only the metallic silver ink cartridge, gently
shake and reinstall.

Cleaning

WARNING
Daily cleaning: wipe off any ink and grime on the media path. The pinch rollers, grit rollers, and platen are
particularly subject to grime. Use neutral detergent diluted with water, and a damp cloth to wipe off ink and
grime.
 This machine is a precision device and is affected by dust and dirt. Clean thoroughly on a daily
basis.

Pinch rollers
Periodically wipe off grime. Failure to wipe
clean may result in dirt on the media.
Wipe off ink and grime left on
the media path.
Never use gasoline, alcohol, thinner or any other inflammable substanc-
es.
