production. It may content hazardous substances for the health and the environment.
In order to avoid the dissemination of those substances in our environment and to diminish the pressure
on the natural resources, we encourage you to use the appropriate take-back system. Those systems
will reuse or recycle most of the materials of your end life equipment in a sound way.
If you need more information on the collection, reuse and recycling systems, please contact your local or
regional waste administration.

2.3.3 Position and function of the heating elements
Heater element Temperature Function
Pre-heater (Heater A) 20 – 50°C •Open the pores to make the media more receptive for Océ
IJC910 Low Solvent Ink.
Fixer (Heater B) 20 – 40°C
•To establish optimum fixation onto the media (coated and
uncoated).
•Optimizes the dot gain control.
Post-Fixer (Heater C) 20 – 70°C •The post-fixer finalizes the fixation process and helps to make
the prints touch-dry.
Dryer (Heater D) 20 – 50°C
•The dryer completes the drying for compatibility with the take-
up in combination with higher output speeds.
•Stickiness of printed banner materials is improved.
There have been a number of requests from the field, asking the heaters to be on by default for a few user
settings. This has now been implemented as follows:
•For user 1 and user 8 default settings are as follows:
{Pre heater A: 50°C
{Fixer B: 40°C
{Post Fixer C: 50°C
{Dryer D: 50°C
•For users 2 Î7, by default the heaters are still OFF.
Notes
Please note some RIP software do not allow selection of the user from software side. In some cases,
however, they do automatically activate user 8.
