8. When Not in Use for a Prolonged Period
Keep Performing Maintenance
Switch On the Power Once a Month
Switch on the sub power once a month. When you turn on the power, the machine automatically performs some operations
such as those to keep the print heads from drying out. Allowing the machine to stand completely unused for a prolonged
period may damage the print heads, so be sure to switch on the power to perform these automatic operations.
Keep at a Constant Temperature and Relative Humidity
Even when the machine is not in use, keep it at a temperature of 5 to 40˚C (41 to 104˚F) and a relative humidity of 20 to 80%
(with no condensation). Temperatures that are too high may degrade the ink and cause malfunction. Temperatures that are
too low may cause the ink to freeze and damage the heads.
Alarm Feature
This function is to remind you to switch on the sub power once a month when you're using
ECO-SOL MAX ink. When the machine remains unused for about one month, this screen
appears and a warning beep sounds. If this screen appears, switch on the sub power. When
maintenance operations nish, switch o the sub power.
This feature operates when the printer's main power is turned on. We recommend leaving on just the main power to the
printer even when the machine is to remain out of use for a prolonged period.
Important Note on Draining Ink
This machine has features for draining internal ink and for performing washing using cleaning cartridges, but they should
never be used except in special cases. When you're using ECO-SOL MAX ink, allowing the machine to stand without ink for
a prolonged period may damage the heads, even if internal washing is performed. Once ink has been lled, then as a rule
the ink should never be drained.
