performed exclusively by the manufacturer’s authorized service point or by a user trained in such
operaons by the manufacturer’s authorized representaves.
– Do not print on objects whose temperature exceeds 100°C (212°F) at the me of labeling.
– Make any manipulaons in the electrical part of the printer only when the power is turned
o.
– Do not direct the printhead outlet towards persons or animals.
– Wear protecve clothing and goggles while performing any operaons in the ink system and
the printhead.
