Switch on the sub power once every two weeks. 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). If temperatures are too high or too low, it may cause malfunction.
Alarm Feature
This feature is to remind you to switch on the sub power once a month. 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 SOL INK cleaning cartridges, but they should never be used except in special
cases. 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.

Procedures from Preparing to Move Through Reinstalling
To move the machine, you must completely drain all ink inside the machine and secure the print heads in
place with packing materials to protect them. Attempting to move the machine without rst doing this may
result in damage to internal components due to leaking ink or damage to the heads. This operation requires
four unused SOL INK cleaning cartridges. Have these on hand before you start.
Important Notes on Moving
Be sure to use SOL INK cleaning cartridges. Use of any other type may result in break-
down.
Once the preparations for moving are complete, move the machine and ll it with ink with
as little delay as possible. Allowing the machine to stand without ink may damage the print
heads.
When moving the machine, keep it at a temperature between 5 to 40˚C (41 to 104˚F) and at
relative humidity between 20 to 80% (with no condensation). Failure to do so may result in
breakdown.
Handle the machine with care when moving, keeping it level (not tilted at an angle) and pre-
venting it from striking other objects.
