When UV-LED Device Cleaning Is Necessary

The UV-LED devices are important components for ink adhesion. They require periodic and appropriate maintenance. It is important to clean the UV-LED devices with the appropriate timing.

Once a month or more

To keep a stable printing condition at all times, perform cleaning once a month or more.

When there is a lot of scattered ink mist and the inside of the machine is soiled

Perform this cleaning every day when frequently printing with the print heads at a distance from the print surface or when ink is emitted to locations that protrude from the print surface. If the scattered ink mist is allowed to harden, it may cause malfunctions.

When the bases and irradiation windows of the UV-LED devices are dirty (see the following figure).



Point:
  • The frequency with which UV-LED device cleaning is required depends on the machine's use. For information about the frequency of cleaning needed for your conditions of use, contact your authorized Roland DG Corporation dealer.

  • For hardened ink and other such dirt that cannot be completely cleaned away, contact your authorized Roland DG Corporation dealer.
