Safety Precautions

Follow the warnings and precautions below to use the printer safely. Do not perform any operations or procedures other than as described in this manual. Doing so may result in unexpected accidents and can cause a ﬁ re or electrical shocks.

Warning

█ Printer Location

Do not set up the printer in any location exposed to alcohol, thinner, or other volatile liquids. If these

• substances come into contact with electrical components inside the printer, there is a risk of ﬁ re or electrical shock.

█ Power Supply

Never handle the power cable with wet hands. Doing so may cause electrical shock.•

Insert the power cable securely and completely into the power source. If the power cable is not

• inserted completely, this could cause a ﬁ re or electrical shock.

Do not use any power cable other than the one provided. This could cause a ﬁ re or electrical shock.

• Never use the power cable with any other electrical device.

Never cut the power cable or attempt to modify it, and never stretch it or bend it forcefully. Never place

• a heavy object on the power cable. Damaged sections of the power cable could cause a short circuit and may cause a ﬁ re or electrical shock.

Never connect the power cable to a power strip or any power source shared by other electrical

• devices. This could cause a ﬁ re or electrical shock.

Never knot the power cable or wrap it around itself. This could cause a ﬁ re or electrical shock.•

Periodically disconnect the power cable and use a dry cloth to wipe away dust that has collected on

• the plug and the area around the power outlet. Leaving the power cable plugged in and not cleaned for a long period, especially in an area subject to dust, oil, and humidity, could cause the insulation material to deteriorate and lead to a ﬁ re.

█ In an Emergency

If the printer emits smoke or strange odors, continuing to use the printer may cause a ﬁ re or electrical

• shock. Switch the printer off immediately and remove the power plug from the power outlet. Contact the nearest service center.

█ Cleaning the Printer

For cleaning, use a cloth dampened in water. Never use ﬂ ammable solvents such as alcohol,

• benzene, or thinner. If these substances come into contact with electrical components inside the printer, there is a risk of ﬁ re or electrical shock.

█ Pacemakers

This printer generates a low-level magnetic ﬁ eld. Anyone wearing a pacemaker who experiences

• discomfort while working around the printer should leave the area. Consult a physician before continuing to work around the printer.

Page 3

Caution

█ Printer Location

Never install the printer on an unstable or vibrating surface. If it falls over, this could cause personal

• injury.

Never set up the printer in a location that is exposed to high humidity or large amounts of dust, or

• exposed to direct sunlight, high temperature, or open ﬂ ame. This could cause a ﬁ re or electrical shock. Use the printer location in an environment where temperature and humidity are within the ranges of 15°C to 30°C (59°F to 86°F) and 10 to 80% RH (with no condensation).

Never place the printer on a heavy wool or shag carpet. The ﬁ bers may enter the printer and cause a

• ﬁ re.

Keep the area around the power outlet clear of items so that you can disconnect the power cable

• immediately if the printer starts operating abnormally. In the event of a printer malfunction, remove the power cable from the outlet as soon as possible to prevent ﬁ re and electrical shocks.

Do not install the printer near sources of strong electromagnetic ﬁ elds, whether equipment that

• generates such ﬁ elds or places where such ﬁ elds occur. This could damage the printer or cause malfunction.

█ Moving the Printer

The weights of main printer units are as follows:• iPF8300: Approx. 111 kg (244.7 lb) Moving the printer requires at least six people, holding it on both sides. Be careful to avoid back strain

• and other injuries.

When moving the printer, ﬁ rmly grasp the Carrying Handles under each side. The printer may be

• unsteady if you hold it at other positions, which poses a risk of injury from dropping the printer.

Safety Precautions

█ Power Supply

Always grip the plug to remove the power cable from the power outlet. Pulling on the power cable

• could damage the cable and lead to a ﬁ re or electrical shock.

Never use an extension cord. This could cause a ﬁ re or electrical shock.•

Never use any power source other than 100–120 / 220–240 V AC. This could cause a ﬁ re or electrical

• shock. The printer operating conditions are described below. Use the printer under the following conditions. Power supply voltage: 100–120 / 220–240 V AC

Power supply frequency: 50 / 60 Hz

█ Cleaning the Printer

Always disconnect the power cable from the outlet before cleaning the printer. If the printer is switched

• on accidentally, moving parts inside the printer may cause personal injuries.

█ Printhead , Ink Tanks, and Maintenance Cartridge

Always store consumables in a safe location out of the reach of small children. If a child licks or

• ingests ink accidentally, seek medical assistance immediately. If ink accidentally gets in your eyes, immediately rinse with water.•

If ink gets on your skin, immediately clean it off with soap and water. If irritation persists in your eyes or on your skin, contact a physician immediately.

Avoid dropping or shaking printheads, ink tanks, and maintenance cartridges. Spilled ink can stain

• clothing and the work area.

Never touch the electrical contacts of the Printhead after printing. The contacts become extremely hot

• and can cause minor burns.

Page 4

Safety Precautions

█ Other

•

Never disassemble the printer or attempt repairs. There are high voltage parts inside the printer that can cause a ﬁ re or electrical shock.

Never use ﬂ ammable sprays around the printer. The gas of ﬂ ammable sprays can cause a ﬁ re or electrical shock, if it contacts high voltage points inside the printer.

Never insert your hand into the printer while it is printing. Moving parts inside the printer can cause injuries.

Never place anything on the printer such as small metal objects (paper clips, staples), liquids, any type of liquid container that contains ﬂ ammable liquids (alcohol, benzene, etc.). If such objects fall into the printer, this could cause a ﬁ re or electrical shock.

After removing the Cutter Unit , never touch the cutting edge (a). This could cause personal injury.•

To prevent a ﬁ re hazard or dangerous electric shock, if a foreign object falls into or a liquid spills into the printer, press the Power button immediately to switch the printer off, unplug the printer power cable from the outlet, and then call for service. If you continue to use the printer, this could cause a ﬁ re or electrical shock.

Connect the interface cable correctly. To avoid damage, before connection make sure that the shape of the cable connector matches the connection point on the printer.

During printing, turn on the ventilation system in the room.•

We recommend ensuring ample space for installation.•
