Features of the SJ-745EX/645EX
What Is the SJ-745EX/645EX?
The SJ-745EX/645EX is a large-format printer combining high speed with high print quality . It can be loaded with many
different types of media. It also achieves better weatherability through the use of ECO-SOL INK.
Built-in Print Server
This machine has a built-in print server (Roland-PrintServer) as a network interface. When you use the print server, you
can send printing data to the machine from anywhere on the network.
Built-in Print Heater

pets.
About the Symbols
The symbol alerts the user to important instructions or warnings. The specific
meaning of the symbol is determined by the design contained within the triangle.
The symbol at left means "danger of electrocution."
The symbol alerts the user to items that must never be carried out (are forbidden). The specific thing that must not be done is indicated by the design contained
within the circle. The symbol at left means the unit must never be disassembled.
The symbol alerts the user to things that must be carried out. The specific thing
that must be done is indicated by the design contained within the circle. The symbol
at left means the power-cord plug must be unplugged from the outlet.

to open flame, sparking, or static
electricity, or in a location exposed
to high temperatures, such as in the
immediate vicinity of a heater. Also,
do not place undried media in such
locations.
Doing so may result in fire due to
combustion of ink or cleaning liquid.
Do not store ink cartridges, cleaning
liquid, or discharged ink in locations
such as the following.
• Near open flame
• Locations exposed to high
temperatures, such as in the
immediate vicinity of a heater
• Near bleach, chemicals,
explosives, or the like
Doing so may cause fire.

the platen.
Doing so may cause fire.
5
To Ensure Safe Use
Do not use with any electrical power
supply that does not meet the ratings
displayed on the unit.
Use with any other power supply may lead
to fire or electrocution.
Ground the unit with the ground wire.
Failure to do so may result in risk of electrical shock in the even of a mechanical problem.
Use only with the power cord included
with this product.
Use with other than the included power cord
may lead to fire or electrocution.
Do not connect the power cord with
other electrical loads on a single electrical outlet.
Doing so may generate heat and cause fire.
Do not use with a damaged power
cord or plug, or with a loose electrical outlet.
Use with any other power supply may lead
to fire or electrocution.

or weight on it.
Doing so may damage the electrical power
cord, leading to fire, electrical shock, or electrocution.
Do not attempt to unplug the powercord plug with wet hands.
Doing so may result in electrical shock or
electrocution.
When unplugging the electrical power
cord from the power outlet, grasp the
plug, not the cord.
Unplugging by pulling the cord may damage
it, leading to fire, electrical shock, or electrocution.
Do not allow liquids, metal objects or
flammables inside the machine.

1-3 Assembling and Installing
Do not operate in a location exposed to open flame, sparking, or static electricity, or in a location exposed to high temperatures, such as in the immediate vicinity of a heater. Also, do not place undried
media in such locations.
Doing so may result in fire due to combustion of ink or cleaning liquid.
Ensure adequate ventilation for the work area.
Failure to do so may result in odor, physical distress, or fire.
Unpacking, and installation must be carried out by four or more persons.
Otherwise the machine or the stand may fall, resulting in injury.
Install in a level and stable location.
Otherwise the unit may tip over and cause injury.
Use care to avoid pinching the fingers when placing the unit on the stand.
Doing so may result in injury.
Use the joining bolts to secure the unit to the stand.
Failure to do so may result in falling of the unit, leading to injury.
Never install the unit in any of the following situations, as it could result in breakdown or faulty operation:
• Places with excessive electrical noise.
• Places with excessive humidity or dust.
• Places with poor ventilation, because this machine generates considerable heat during operation.
• Places with excessive vibration.
• Places exposed to strong illumination or direct sunlight.
Never stand on the stand legs. Doing so may damage them.
Do not place objects on the unit, as doing so may result in breakdown.

1-4 Connecting the Cables
Use only with a power supply of the same rating as indicated on the unit.
Use with any other power supply may lead to fire or electrocution.
Ground the unit with the ground wire.
Failure to do so may result in risk of electrical shock in the even of a mechanical problem.
Use only with the power cord included with this product.
Use with other than the included power cord may lead to fire or electrocution.
Do not connect the power cord with other electrical loads on a single electrical outlet.
Doing so may generate heat and cause fire.
Be sure to use an electrical outlet for the power supply. Also, do not connect multiple electrical loads on a single electrical outlet.
Low or unstable voltage may result in inadequate print heater performance. If the temperature of the print heater fails to rise
adequately even when used correctly, check the voltage of the power supply.
Securely connect the power cord, computer I/O cable and so on so that they will not be unplugged and cause failure during
operation. Doing so may lead to faulty operation or breakdown.
Before connecting the cable, make sure the computer’s power and the main power switch of the unit are switched off.
Arrange the power cord and interface connection cable to prevent tripping when moving around the unit.
