2.3.3 Environmental conditions
Tip!
Keep the ambient temperature and humidity as constant as possible. Fluctuations could impair
the print results.
Ensure adequate ventilation at floor level.
2.3.4 Avoid harmful substances
In general, no corrosive substances should be situated in the same room as the machine. Acidic
and alkaline vapours corrode the ink, damage the print heads and can make them unusable.
Please keep especially the following substances away from your printer:
All halogens such as fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, astatine and Ununseptium, and their acids
and salts (e.g. also salt water and chlorine cleaner), aqua regia (hydrochloric acid and nitric acid),
potassium iodide etc.
Under no circumstances may machine parts be treated with cleaning agents which contain the
above materials.
Remember that air humidification systems are often operated with chlorine or salt additives. Avoid
this to protect the machine and prevent malfunctions.

3.2 Proper use
The proper use of the device is essential for its safe operation.
The equipment supplied
• is listed and marked;
• determines the possible uses of the device.
The printing system is essentially designed as an output station for print data and, therefore, for
printing materials in roll and plate formats up to a thickness of 50 mm .
Its proper use is therefore restricted to the printing of flexible and rigid, non-combustible materials.
Any other use or use that goes beyond this is deemed reasonably foreseeable misuse. The user
bears sole liability for any damage arising as a consequence!
Proper use of the device also requires:
• compliance with applicable national safety measures;
• observation of the safety instructions in this operating manual;
• compliance with the conditions of use and use of the specified operating materials.
