Guidelines for Preventive Maintenance
Recommended maintenance depends on the print mode that is most frequently used. If
you mostly print Roll to Roll (≥80%), refer to
Table 3 . Otherwise, see Table 4 . Inspect
means to check the condition and replace if necessary.
Note that these are general guidelines for preventive maintenance. As operating
conditions for your printer may differ, adjust your maintenance schedule accordingly.
Maintenance items not on the tables below should be performed on an as-needed
basis. These maintenance items will be covered before the scheduled maintenance.
NOTE: When using the cutting feature and continuous media or die-cut media with the
outer matrix left in place, the print zone and cutting zone should be inspected
for dust and debris every 3 rolls and cleaned as needed.
