Statement of Foreseen Use
The Océ Arizona flatbed inkjet printers are intended for use in a
commercial print shop environment. Factory-authorized training is made
available for operators at the time of installation. The printers use piezo
printing technology and UV curable inks to produce outdoor-durable
output. They can print directly onto rigid and flexible media of up to
50.8mm (2.0 inch) thickness. The printer holds the media stationary while
the printhead assembly moves across to create the print, eliminating
image skew problems often associated with rigid stock feed systems. With
the Roll Media Option installed the printers can also print on various roll
media. See your local representative or visit the Océ Media Guide for more
details on recommended media.

Responsibilities of the Operator
The printer operator must be properly trained. Océ provides training for
the operator in the use of the printer hardware and software at the time of
installation. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that only properly
trained personnel operate the printer. Operators must be fully versed in
the operation of ONYX Thrive® or ProductionHouse® . For any operator
unfamiliar with these applications, ONYX training is required. Training
courses are available; contact your local Océ representative.
The operator or other trained personnel are expected to handle all user
maintenance as detailed in the User Manual, and also replacement of
consumable parts (except print heads). If your site has a technician in
charge of printer maintenance, that person is the optimal candidate. While
any trained operator may perform routine maintenance, the best
maintenance results from familiarity with the printer's internal operation
and history.
The printer requires daily printhead maintenance to ensure the highest
print quality and longer life for the printheads. The printer design provides
you easy access to perform this simple task and it is essential that
printhead maintenance is performed at least once a day, and more
frequently if needed. Periodic cleaning must be scheduled for some
components on a regular basis. A few minutes spent cleaning also helps to
ensure optimal printer function and the highest quality prints.
