Inkjet plotter JV3 series
Request for daily care
Inkjet plotter is the precision machine that has highly delicate mechanism. Especially, little dust and paper
powder may have effect on a head nozzle, and may not perform normal printing.
To use the inkjet plotter in good condition, we recommend the following daily care.
CAUTION
1) JV3 is the plotter using the organic solvent ink. Wear supplied goggles and gloves during daily
care.
2) In case water or alcohol mixed into the organic solvent ink, flocculation occurs. Be sure to not
adhere water or alcohol on the nozzle, near the head, the cap, and wiper.
3) When not using this plotter for a long time, it is necessary to flash little ink periodically to obtain
the ink flashing stability.
When not using for a long time, perform the [CUSTODY wash] function (Operation manual
Chapter5) and turn off the front power switch. The main power switch at rear should be on (The
“on” mark described as a vertical line “ | ” on the switch) and also keep the socket inserted.
• Do not disassemble this plotter. It causes an electric shock, fire, and damages.
•Be sure to not water into the inside of this plotter. If the inside gets wet, it causes
an electric shock, fire, and damages.
•Before start the daily care, turn off the power supply, and disconnect an electric
cable.
It causes unexpected accident.
•Do not use benzine, thinner, and the chemicals contained abrasives. The surface
of the cover may be deteriorated or deformed.
•Do not apply lube oil on the inside of this plotter. The plotter mechanism may be
damaged.
1. Installation environment
•Use this plotter in clean (less dust) environment. The use of fan and ventilator might be a cause of dust brow up.

2. Daily care
Around heads
Dust accumulates most around heads mostly, and it effects the operation and printing results for this plotter,
and also as this plotter has very delicate mechanism, need enough attention to the care for it. Gelled ink and
dust adhere to the bottom of a slider and around heads, scour off it using a cotton bud. Do not touch the head
nozzle.
Around heads contaminated Clean with a cotton bud
Capping station ( Operation manual Chapter3 “Cleaning the wiper and ink caps”)
Around the cap is also the place dust accumulates. Clean to prevent dust adhering to the heads.
• When using SS ink or SS2 ink or TS ink : Cleaning fluid RS (SPC-0336)
• When using MS2 ink or ES3 ink or Eco-HS1 ink : Cleaning fluid MS2 (SPC-0369)

Wiper ( Operation manual Chapter3 “Cleaning the wiper and ink caps”)
Ink and paper powder accumulate on the wiper. Confirm the condition, and clean it if it's dirty. In case it
deformed, replace to the new one. ( Operation manual Chapter5 “When the message [REPLACE WIPER]
is displayed )

Metal paper guide
If cut media waste and dust adhered between metal paper guide and platen, can not perform media feeding
and printing normally. Clean this place often.
Metal paper guide Metal paper guide with dust
Media sensor ( Operation manual Chapter3 “Cleaning the media sensor”)
In case dust and ink adhered to the media sensor, it causes detecting on error. Wipe out dust and ink with a
soft cloth.
Y main shaft
When Y main shaft is dirty or slider does not move smoothly, apply Y main shaft oil (SPC-0364).
Before apply the oil, wipe out the dust on the Y main shaft with a soft cloth. We recommended cleaning and
applying oil once a month.
Platen ( Operation manual Chapter3 “Cleaning the platen”)
Dust and paper powder easily adhered to the platen. Clean it frequently.
Wipe a platen and its cover with a soft brush or a dried cloth. When cleaning a platen, clean well the groove
for a media paper guide and the one for media cut (cutter line) etc where easily accumulate the dust.
Outer case ( Operation manual Chapter3 “Maintenance for frame components”)
According to the working environment, the dust and cloud of dust may be adhered. Wring a soft cloth firmly
after wetting it with water and wipe out the dust to prevent the head moving part from dust.
Waste ink tank ( Operation manual Chapter3 “When the waste ink tank become full”))
Check the waste ink tank level to prevent overflow.

3. Storage of media
Media should be stored in the little dust area, and not in direct sunlight. Avoid storing the media in the area
with high temperature and high humidity.
4. Storage of ink cartridge
Store the ink cartridge in no direct sunlight, and no high hu-
midity.
As it's a delicate product, do not drop it.
The board on an ink cartridge (right picture) should not be
contaminated and discharged static electricity.
5. The examples of defective printing
These following examples indicate improper head (nozzle) firing by dust, which effect printing.
Confirm the nozzle condition periodically before or during outputting not to use in such as this condition.
The nozzle condition can be confirmed with [TEST plotting] in this plotter. ( Operation manual Chapter2
“ Checking and solving nozzle clogging”)

6. How to recover improper nozzle flashing
When not using this plotter for a long time or according to environmental temperature, nozzle flashing may
become unstable. In this case, follow the procedure below to recover nozzle.
1) Daily care
Execute daily care all parts noted on this manual.
2) Normal cleaning ( Operation manual Chapter2 “Checking and solving nozzle clogging”)
Execute normal cleaning along the operation manual after executed daily care.
Repeat cleaning and test printing, then confirm the nozzle clogging resolved.
3) Hard cleaning ( Operation manual Chapter2 “Checking and solving nozzle clogging”)
If nozzle clogging cannot be solved even executed normal cleaning several times, change the cleaning
mode to hard cleaning, and execute the same procedures.
4) Nozzle cleaning ( Operation manual Chapter3 “Cleaning the nozzle [NOZZLE WASH]”)
In case nozzle clogging or other problems can not be cleared away after all these procedures, execute
nozzle cleaning.
The execute cleaning and test printing for one minute
5) Nozzle cleaning ( Operation manual Chapter3 “Cleaning the nozzle [NOZZLE WASH]”)
In case nozzle clogging is not solved with nozzle cleaning above-mentioned, set the TIME to leave 5 min-
utes, and execute nozzle cleaning and test printing again.
In case nozzle clogging is not resolved with all these procedures, contact with our customer service or make
service call to the agency you purchased.
