0.3.1Responsibilities of Operator and Service Technician
Arizona T220UV Operator
The operator of the Arizona T220UV must be properly trained. Océ provides training for
the operator in the use of the Arizona T220UV hardware and software at the time of
installation. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that only properly trained personnel
operate the printer.
Operators of the Arizona T220UV should be fully versed in the operation of Onyx
PosterShop® . For any operator unfamiliar with its operation, Onyx PosterShop® training
is required. On-site or off-site training courses are available; contact Onyx Graphics
Corporation for more information:
http://www.onyxgfx.com/support_training.html
The operator or other trained personnel are expected to handle all user maintenance as
detailed in the User Guide, and also replacement of consumable parts (except print heads).
If your site has a technician in charge of printer maintenance, that person is the optimal
candidate. While any trained operator may perform routine maintenance, the best
maintenance results from familiarity with the printer's internal operation and history.

-viii- 3010102780-B
The Arizona T220UV printer requires some daily maintenance. Periodic cleaning must be
scheduled for some components on a weekly basis. A few minutes spent cleaning ensures the
highest quality prints. Several areas require maintenance to ensure the highest print quality,
and the printer design gives you easy access to all these areas. Refer to the Arizona T220UV
User Guide for details.
It is the responsibility of the operator to try to eliminate simple problems before calling a
service representative. But knowing when to call for service is also important. An untrained
operator must not attempt to service the printer as this may cause further damage. When
you have determined that a service call is required, call as soon as possible. See the
Maintenance section for more details.
Arizona T220UV Field Service Technician
Field service technicians must have Océ Arizona T220UV service training. The service
technician is responsible for all repairs, upgrading and modification requested by the
customer or mandated by the Océ Service and Support Group.
Service personnel are furnished with proper tools for the installation and maintenance of the
Arizona T220UV printer. In addition to the T220UV tools and custom kits, each engineer
will have basic tools for proper maintenance and servicing.
An Océ help desk consultant initially screens all customer calls. This means that a trained
Océ Arizona T220UV specialist with system training handles the calls and helps you
understand your problem or situation. This process minimizes the number of print quality
issues that are not directly related to hardware. All hardware problems are dispatched to field
service technicians. If an on-site visit is required, the help desk technician can recommend
parts which then can be ordered, thus increasing efficiency in the service cycle.
0.3.2Statement of Foreseen Use
The Océ Arizona T220UV flatbed inkjet printer uses piezo printing technology and UV
curable inks to produce outdoor-durable output. It can print directly onto rigid and flexible
substrates up to 62 inches wide by 120 inches long by 2 inches thick (1.6 m x 3 m x 5 cm).
The Océ Arizona T220UV holds substrates stationary while the print head assembly moves
across to create the print, eliminating image skew problems associated with rigid stock feed
systems. It can print full bleeds, saving time and labor costs in finishing.
With four print heads per color, the Océ ArizonaT220UV can produce prints at a
production speed of up to 170 square feet (15.8 m2) per hour. It includes the unique Océ
ColorBlend™ super-CMYK technology, for an apparent resolution of 600 dpi.
The Océ Arizona T220UV uses UV curable pigmented inks, and can print directly onto a
variety of uncoated rigid or flexible substrates such as foam-core style mounting board, PVC
sheets, styrene, aluminum-plastic composites and vinyl.

Product Support and Service |
6/2/04 -ix-
The Arizona T220UV prints directly onto rigid and flexible materials and thus it:
• Eliminates almost all mounting and lamination processes
• Increases labor productivity on short run jobs
• Eliminates costs associated with making films and screens for the Screen
Printer market
• Offers a less complex process for producing an image on a rigid board
• Encourages new applications with creative concepts

1.2Safety Information
1.2.1Introduction
Read all of the material in this section and review the MSDS1documents supplied with
the ink before handling any UV ink or using the Arizona T220UV printer.
1.2.2 Personal Safety
The operator should wear butyl rubber gloves, a protective apron, and Safety glasses
with side shields when handling inks (provided in Starter Kit).
1.2.3Safety Systems and Machine Safeguarding
The Arizona T220UV printer has an integrated safety interlock system that stops all
machine motion when a situation that might compromise operator safety occurs. Thus,
opening any of the gantry doors (except during authorized procedures), tripping the
hinged gate on the gantry cover, or activating an Emergency-Stop button will switch the
Safety Monitoring Relay input circuits. This results in the system isolating the power to
both the motion control motors and the T220UV curing system (lamps). For a general
description of how the safety interlock system works, see “Safety Interlocks” on page 27
and for a detailed technical description see Appendix B.
1.2.4Handling UV Inks
Read and practice safety guidelines as outlined in the Material Safety Data Sheet
(MSDS) for each ink. Post these documents in the work area as required by prevailing
law. MSDS for all six inks are provided when you purchase inks. The following is a
summary of the important safety aspects of the MSDS that are common to all Océ UV
inks.
1. A Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) is a document that contains information on the potential health
effects of exposure and how to work safely with the chemical product. It is an essential starting point for
the development of a complete health and safety program. It contains hazard evaluations on the use,
storage, handling and emergency procedures all related to that material. The MSDS contains much more
information about the material than the label and it is prepared by the supplier. It is intended to tell what
the hazards of the product are, how to use the product safely, what to expect if the recommendations are
not followed, what to do if accidents occur, how to recognize symptoms of overexposure, and what to do
if such incidents occur.
Caution: Both UV inks and the curing lamps can be harmful if not
properly handled. Avoid direct skin or eye contact with wet/
uncured ink. Follow the guidelinesin this section carefully in order
to ensure maximum safety.
