DANGER
Ensure that there is no flame or arc generating device within a distance of 5 m
to the printer.
The ink and makeup ink are both flammable and may cause fire.
Fire can be generated by matches, lighters, cigarettes, heaters, stoves, gas
burners, welders, grinders, and static electricity. Arcs may be generated from
open-type relays, switches, and brush motors. Before handling the ink and
makeup ink, remove electricity from your body, peripheral equipment, etc. In the
interest of safety, place a dry-chemical fire extinguisher near the printer.
Since the ink and makeup ink contain organic solvents, install the printer at an
adequately ventilated location.
1 Never install the printer in an enclosed space.
2 Connect exhaust equipment to the printer in order to prevent it from filling
with organic solvent vapor.
Do not insert tweezers, screwdrivers, or any other metallic items into the ink
ejection hole at the end of the print head.
When the printer is ready to print, a high voltage (approximately 6 kV) is applied
to the deflection electrode section in the print head. Exercise caution to avoid
electric shock, injury, or fire.
Do not remove the outer covering.
High voltage is applied to some sections of the printer. Exercise caution to avoid
electric shock or injury.
Use an AC voltage of 100 to 120 V or 200 to 240 V ±10 % and a mains
frequency of 50 or 60 Hz only.
If the above requirements are not met, the electric parts may overheat and burn,
creating a risk of fire or electric shock.
Never drain the ink or makeup ink waste solution into a public sewer system.
Waste disposal must comply with all appropriate regulations. Consult the
appropriate regulatory agency for further information.
Exercise caution to avoid inadvertently disconnecting, forcibly pulling, or
bending piping tubes.
Since the ink and makeup ink are pressurized in some portions of piping tubes,
they may splash into your eyes or mouth or onto your hands or clothing.
If any ink or makeup ink enters your eyes or mouth, immediately flush with warm
or cold water and consult a physician.
