Tools required for maintenance

Ink-cleaning kit (SPC-0137)

Sb210 Maintenance cleaning solution (SPC-0701)

cleaning stick (SPC-0527)

Cotton swab

Dropper

Gloves

Soft fabric

(1) Around heads (Operation manual Chapter 4 “Cleaning the heads and their surrounding parts”)

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 cleaning

stick (SPC-0527). Do not touch the head nozzle.

(2) Ink cap (Operation manual Chapter 4 “Cleaning the Ink cap”)

Around the cap is also the place dust accumulates. Use the cleaning solution, and clean to prevent dust

adhering to the heads.

(3) Wiper (Operation manual Chapter 4 “Cleaning the Wiper”)

Ink, dust, or lint accumulates on the wiper and the wiper cleaner. Check the condition of the wiper, the

wiper cleaner, and the sponge under the wiper, and if dusty, clean them.

If the wiper is deformed, replace with a new wiper following Operation Manual chapter 4 “When the

message of [Replace wiper] is displayed”.

(4) Mist fan filter (Operation manual Chapter 4 “Cleaning mist fan filter”)

If using with the mist fan filter stained, large amounts of mist may be generated and it may stain media

or break the machine.

(5) Waste ink tank (Operation manual Chapter 4 “When waste ink tank is filled up”)

Check the waste ink tank level to prevent overflow.

Dirty wiper

Stained mist fan filter

Users are advised to perform the maintenance works described below once a week so that the printer

will keep its high performance and accuracy over an extended period of its life.

(1) Perform “Drain Wash” (Operation manual Chapter 4 “Wash ink discharge passage (Drain

Wash)”)

Clean the ink discharge passage periodically.

If the ink discharge passage is clogged, the printer can not perform cleaning properly, and the printer

may be broken.

(2) Exterior Surfaces (Operation manual Chapter 4 “Cleaning the Exterior Surfaces”)

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.

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.

Be careful of the followings to store.

Store the ink pack in no direct sunlight, and no high humidity.

As it's a delicate product, do not drop it.

Ink IC should not be contaminated and discharged static

electricity.

Be sure to store the ink pack and the ink IC together.

3. Periodically care (Once a week)

4. Storage of media

5. Storage of ink pack

Ink pack and Ink IC

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 printing] in this plotter. (Operation manual Chapter 2

“Test Printing”)

Deflection Nozzle out

Ink dropping Satellite

6. The examples of defective printing

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 Chapter 2 “Performing Head Cleaning”)

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 Chapter 2 “Performing Head Cleaning”)

If nozzle clogging cannot be solved even executed normal cleaning several times, change the clean-

ing mode to hard cleaning, and execute the same procedures.

4.Nozzle cleaning (Operation manual Chapter 4 “Cleaning the Head Nozzles”)

In case nozzle clogging or other problems can not be cleared away after all these procedures, exe-

cute nozzle cleaning.

The execute cleaning and test printing for one minute.

5.Nozzle cleaning (Operation manual Chapter 4 “Cleaning the Head Nozzles”)

In case nozzle clogging is not solved with nozzle cleaning above-mentioned, set the TIME to leave 5

minutes, and execute nozzle cleaning and test printing again.

6.Ink filling (Operation manual Chapter 4 “If nozzle clogging is not solved (ink

filling)”)

If nozzle clogging is not corrected after nozzle cleaning mentioned above, fill ink.

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.

When the operation of the printer is to be suspended for a week or more, use the [Strage Wash] func-

tion to clean the nozzles in the heads and the ink discharge passage.

After the cleaning, store the printer properly.
