1-1. Precautions

Please observe the following precautions before using your printer.
Please note the following information to buyers of T-shirts printed with your printer:
A color transfer may happen if a printed side of T-shirt touches to a white or light-colored
synthetic leather made with PVC (polyvinyl chloride). If it is happened, clean it by using a
household cleaner or alcohol.
Please meet the following temperature/ humidity requirements.
Keeping your printer
Operating your printer
For the best print result
Do not uninstall an Ink Cartridge during the operation; it may result in poor print quality or
cause damage on your printer.
Do not turn off your printer, or open the Front Cover during the operation; your printer may be
damaged.
Be careful handling a printed T-shirt that is not heat-treated. If you get ink on your clothing, it
is hard washed off.
When you replace the Yellow Ink Cartridge, the Wiper Cleaner also needs to be replaced.
The Wiper Cleaner replacement includes cleaning of the Print Head Cap and Wiper Blade.
If not, it may cause poor print quality or your printer may be damaged.
When cleaning the Print Head Cap and Wiper Blade, use the Cap Cleaner Kit following the
procedure described in "5-1-2. Replacing the Wiper Cleaner". Never use alcohol; it will cause
damage to the Print Heads.
Install the Ink Cartridges properly. Be careful with their directions and the colors of Ink
Cartridges (confirm both the colors of labels on your printer and the Ink Cartridges).
To keep the best printing result, your printer stops printing and requests the new Ink Cartridge
when the ink is less than 30 cc (+/- 10 cc). If you see the message "EMPTY XXXX (color)",
replace the Ink Cartridge.
