Manual Cleaning Method
Perform manual cleaning once per week, if the inside of the machine is dirty due to ink mist, or if dot drop-out or ink drip issues that cannot be improved with powerful cleaning occur.
Be sure to perform operations as specified by the instructions above, and never touch any area not specified in the instructions.
Sudden movement of the machine may cause injury.
Important notes on this procedure
-
Before performing this operation, remove any objects to be printed on.
-
To prevent the print heads from drying out, finish this procedure in 10 minutes or less. A warning beep sounds after 10 minutes.
-
Never use any implements other than the included cleaning sticks. Cotton swabs or other lint-producing items may damage the print heads.
-
Promptly dispose of cleaning sticks after using them once. Reusing cleaning sticks immediately or after time has passed will have a negative effect on the print heads.
-
Do not put a cleaning stick that has been used for cleaning into the cleaning liquid. Doing so will deteriorate the cleaning liquid.
-
Never rub the print head surface (nozzle surface).
-
Stroke the sponges very gently, applying as little pressure as possible. Never rub, scrape, or crush them.
- A warning beep sounds 10 minutes after operation begins. Stop work, close all the covers, and then press ENTER to end the manual cleaning mode. After that, restart the procedure from the beginning.
