Important :
Please check the ink status while printing in flatbed. When error
message “Ink not filled” is displayed, IR lamp will power on, this
can cause burning hazard.
With firmware versions, older than V 3.02 L, continually check ink
level. Because there will not be a message when bottles are almost
empty.

1.3 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
General safety instructions that must be observed to use the equipment safely are explained below.
Always wear protective goggles. Operators as well as technicians and visitors have to wear protective
goggles whenever the infrared lamp is active. It is obligated to wear them to avoid eye damage.
Do not touch the infrared lamp or infrared lamp house after or during operation. Doing so could result in
burns.
Please note that after operating the infrared lamp and infrared lamp house will remain hot for several
minutes. Let it cool off. Not doing so could result in burns.
In case the carriage or infrared lamp touches the media, power the unit OFF and ON. Do not touch the
carriage or infrared lamp.
Be careful not to pinch your fingers when lowering or lifting the media guide by using the lifting grip.
During printing on rigid materials, the fans will cool off the infrared lamp. Please note there is no
detection. Regularly check if the fans are working. You can do this by holding a sheet of paper between
the fan and lamp house.
When installing or removing the front stand 1, please make sure not to touch the carriage or the infrared
lamp. Doing so could cause permanent damage.
Do not place the printer in the following areas. Doing so may result in the printer tipping or falling over
and causing injury.
Unstable surfaces
Inclined surface
Areas subject to vibration by other equipment
Do not stand on or place heavy objects on your printer. Doing so may result in the printer tipping or
falling over and may cause injury.
Do not cover the ventilation hole of your printer with cloth, such as a blanket or table cloth. Doing so
could obstruct ventilation and cause fire.
Do not place the printer in humid and dusty areas. Doing so may result in electrical shock or fire.
Do not use a damaged power cable. Doing so may result in electrical shock.
Do not attempt to plug in electrical plugs with wet hands. Doing so may result in electrical shock.
Do not connect earth cables in the following areas.
Gas pipes Doing so may cause fire or an explosion.
Earth terminals for telephone line or lightning rod Doing so may cause a large flow of
voltage if lightning occurs.
Water pipes or faucets If there is a plastic part in the pipe, the earth will not work properly.
The ink used in the product contains an organic solvent (CYCLOHEXANONE). It is flammable so open
flame is prohibited in the area. In a dry environment, static electricity can cause ignition, so before
handling the ink, jetwash liquid or waste liquids, touch a metallic object first to remove static electricity
from your body.
Do not insert or drop metal or inflammable objects into openings, such as ventilation outlets. Doing so
may result in electrical shock and fire.
Stop using your printer if a liquid is spilled into it. This may cause electrical shock or fire. Turn the
printer off as soon as possible, unplug the power cord, contact MUTOH local dealer.

Be sure to use the specified voltage (AC 100 V- 120 V or AC 220 V - 240 V). Otherwise, electrical shock
or fire may occur.
Use electricity directly from a power outlet (AC 100 V- 120 V or AC 220 V - 240 V). Do not put many
loads on one electrical output. Otherwise, heat may be generated and cause fire.
Be sure to use an outlet with an earth terminal and use the terminal correctly. Otherwise, electrical
shock or fire may occur.
The ink used in this product contains an organic solvent (CYCLOHEXANONE). Make sure to follow the
industrial waste disposal laws and ordinances of your local governments. It is necessary to install a local
ventilation unit, a push/pull type ventilation unit, or a total ventilation unit to perform adequate ventilation.
If ink or jetwash liquid is swallowed, do not make the person throw up, but immediately call a doctor and
a poison management centre. If there is contact with eyes or inhalation, it may cause irritation. Follow
the cautions and procedures labeled on the ink and jetwash bottles, and take action immediately.
Follow the instructions below when handling the power cable.
Do not modify the cable
Do not put heavy objects on the cable
Do not bend, twist, or pull the cord
Do not wire the cable near equipment that generates heat
Follow the instructions below when handling the power plug. Otherwise, fire may occur.
Wipe away dust and any other residue before inserting the plug.
Ensure that the plug is firmly inserted as far as it will go.
When handling the foot switch, be wary of the following:
Do not place anything heavy on the foot switch
Do not bend the cable of the foot switch with force, and do not pull.

colours. Filling the tank with wrong colour ink can make the print head useless.
During printing in roll mode, do not touch the media guide. The media guide is hot, and may cause burns
if touched.
During the winding operation, make sure to keep hands and fingers clear of moving parts.
Take extreme caution not to have your fingers pinched in the drive when moving the media.
