4 Installation
Printer installation is explained below.
4.1 Choosing a place for the printer
Install the printer in a proper location referring to the following.
WARNING
 The ink and jet wash fluid used for this printer contains an organic solvent
(CYCLOHEXANONE). Make sure to follow the industrial waste disposal laws and ordinances
of your local government.
It is necessary to install a local ventilation unit, push/pull type ventilation unit, or a total
ventilation unit to perform adequate ventilation.
 The ink and jet wash fluid used for this printer 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, jet wash fluid, or
waist fluid, touch a metallic object first to remove static electricity from your body. Do not
near materials having static, and take appropriate measures against static electricity.
 Do not place the printer in a location under the following conditions. Doing so may cause the
product to fall, become damaged, or cause injury.
 Unstable surfaces
 Slanted surfaces
 Locations that are subject to vibration from other product
 Do not stand on the printer or place any heavy objects on it. Doing so may cause it to fall
over, become damaged, or cause injury.
 Do not cover the ventilation hole of the printer with cloth, such as a blanket or table cloth.
Doing so could prevent the printer from ventilating and cause fire.
 Keep the printer away from humid and busty areas. Failure to do so may result in electrical
shock or fire.
