Handling of The Machine
!
!!
!Do not turn off the Main Power Switch or unplug the electrical (power) cord during operation.
!
!!
!Do not open any covers during operation.
!
!!
!Do not move the machine.
!
!!
!The machine has precision parts and driving parts inside. Do not handle the machine in other ways than described in this
manual.
!
!!
!Contact your service representative before moving the machine.
!
!!
!Do not place heavy objects on or apply shocks to the machine.
!
!!
!Be sure to open and close any cover gently.
!
!!
!When turning off the Main Power Switch of the machine and then turning it on again, wait more than 10 seconds before turning
it on.
!
!!
!If the machine will not be used or has not been used for a long time, be sure to perform Ink Head Maintenance (normal
cleaning). Otherwise, deterioration or drying of ink occurs in the ink transfer path inside the machine, resulting in clogging at
the head. To prevent this problem, periodic use is recommended.
!
!!
!Never touch the print head because a failure or deterioration of images may occur.
!
!!
!Be sure to use always the machine with the four ink cartridges mounted. Even if some ink cartridge is not used, do not leave
the machine with an ink cartridge removed.
Handling and Storage of Ink Cartridge
!
!!
!Do not shake the Ink Cartridge before use. Air bubbles may occur, resulting in defective printing.
!
!!
!Do not add ink into the Ink Cartridge.
!
!!
!If ink remains for a long time after the cartridge is opened, the ink may be deteriorated because of various components
contained in the air. Use of deteriorated ink may cause a failure of the print head or the ink transfer path.
!
!!
!The injection characteristic of the ink jet printer varies with viscosity of the ink. At a low temperature, particularly, the
viscosity increases and clogging of the print head may occur. Observe the operation environment and storage temperature, and
use the ink earlier checking the date of manufacture.
!
!!
!The adequate operation temperature of the machine is 15°C - 30°C (59°F to 86°F) Use of the machine out of the adequate
temperature range may cause defective printing (decrease of discharge).
!
!!
!Do not release the ink left in the cartridge into a sewer.
!
!!
!Do not keep Ink Cartridge with its nozzle downward.
!
!!
!Store under conditions which avoid freezing or direct sunlight, and temperatures of 5°C (41°F) or lower, and 35°C (95°F) or
higher. Also use the ink earlier checking the date of manufacture.
Handling and Prints of Paper
!
!!
!Be sure to load paper that is not curled.
!
!!
!Be sure to store unused paper to avoid humidity by wrapping it with packing paper.
!
!!
!In duplex printing, the edges of paper may be stained depending on the original.
!
!!
!Prints are discoloured by influence of various components in the air and light. If prints are dried sufficiently and then put in a
frame with glass or is laminated for storage, discolouration becomes small.
!
!!
!When storing prints in a clear file, use a file made of PET.
!
!!
!Prints are decolourized by moisture or sweat. Avoid storage in a location exposed to waterdrops. Also writing with an oil-based
pen may cause bleeding.
!
!!
!The printing density differs between prints immediately after printing and those 24 hours after printing. Note that the density
decreases as the time elapses.
viii
!
!!
!Do not stack prints on other prints that are output with a laser printer or a copier that uses toner. Paper may be stuck to the
portions printed with toner or toner may be transferred to the prints.
!
!!
!Store paper flat avoiding high temperature, high humidity, and direct sunlight. Note that the curled paper cannot be used.
Disposal of Ink Cartridge and Ink Drain Tank
!
!!
!The ink may leak through the ink feed opening of the cartridge. When returning, attach the cap and put the cartridge into the
inner bag and the packing material.
!
!!
!Used Ink Cartridges and Ink Drain Tanks are collected by a service representative. After use is complete, close the cap
securely.
!
!!
!Ink in the ink drain tank cannot be used for printing. A failure or trouble may occur.
Print Area (Image Area)
Regardless of the original paper size, printing cannot be performed on a part of paper along the sides of the paper. Since use of
paper of the same size as the original leaves margins, the full area of the paper is not used for printing.
To print an original on which characters or figures occupy the full area, reduce the full area of the original and then perform
printing.
When printing onto an envelope, the print area is different. Refer to "Printing onto Envelope." "p.1-21
#
##
#Guaranteed Print Area (Image Area)
Printing can be performed into the area 5 mm (3/16") inside from the sides of paper.
ix
#
##
#Maximum Print Area (Image Area)
When an original is scanned through the optional scanner, printing can be performed into the area inside 1 mm (0.04") from
the sides of paper but deterioration of print quality such as loss of characters or figures and bleeding may occur depending on
the original.
Even if the paper size is larger than 316mm × 460mm (127/16" × 181/8"), the actual maximum printable area is 314mm ×
458mm (123/8" × 185/16").
"4.10 Image Area" of the menu setting must be set. "4.10 Image Area" "p.2-29
Depending on the application, it may not be possible to make a margin of 1 mm (0.04") width along the edges of paper. (In most
application software, margin width of 5 mm (3/16") is required.)

Handling of Paper
For printing paper, use recommended paper wherever possible. Recommended paper allows high-quality printing that makes
full use of the printer performance and the characteristics of ink.
When loading paper in the Standard Feed Tray, be sure to use paper that has not been unpacked. After completing printing,
store paper left in the Standard Feed Tray by wrapping it with packing paper. If the paper is left in the Standard Feed Tray, the
paper may be curled, resulting in paper jams.
When using badly cut paper or rough surface drawing paper, fan the paper sufficiently before use.
Store paper in a dry location.

Entry" of the menu setting. At this time, be sure to set the "Paper Type
Entry" to "Envelope."
Be sure to set envelopes in the Standard Feed Tray. Up to 100 envelopes
can be set at a time. (The maximum height is 100 mm.)
Also follow the orientation of envelopes. If envelopes are set in an incorrect
orientation, an envelope may jam in the printer or the print head may be
damaged. If the orientation of the data created on the computer is different
from the orientation of the envelopes in the tray, set the orientation on the
printer driver.
Set the envelopes in the Standard Feed Tray with the flaps spread. (Do not
bend the flaps.)
Perform the setting as follows:
Set the Paper Feed Pressure Adjustment Lever to "CARD."
Set "4.1.2 Paper Type" of the menu setting to "Envelope."
When printing onto envelopes, the following functions cannot be used.
