Support Material, cured or uncured, is not hazardous.
To nd out facility disposal requirements, contact an approved waste disposal provider. Your local
environmental regulatory agency should have a list of qualied providers. You will need to give disposal
service provider a copy of the buildmaterial Global Health and Safety sheets, and possibly other forms
included in the Appendix of your VisiJet Post Processing Guide, such as Waste Prole Worksheet and SNUR
(Signicant New Use Regulation - U.S. only). A report will be provided, indicating disposal requirements, as
well as a quotation for regularly scheduled pickups. If assistance is needed locating a waste disposal
provider, or completing a waste disposal form, contact 3D Systems Technical Support Hot line.
3D Systems assumes no liability or responsibility for proper disposal of uncured buildmaterial. Proper
disposal of uncured material is the sole responsibility of the user.
Health Hazard / Irritant
Caution: UncuredVisiJet build material is a sensitizer. Skin or eye irritation could occur when exposed to the
chemical composition of the material. Any chemical may exert harmful effects if it contacts or enters the
body. VisiJet build material is a sensitizer and irritant.

Skin Sensitization: Uncured VisiJet buildmaterial is a sensitizer. Skin or eye irritation could occur when
exposed to the chemical composition of the material
Uncured material is a sensitizer and can cause allergic reactions if it contacts skin without protective gloves and
sleeves. To avoid sensitization, do not allow uncured material to contact skin. Consult the GHS sheets for
specic information about the sensitization potential.
Once sensitized, a severe allergic reaction may occur when subsequently exposed to very low levels.
Ingestion:UncuredVisiJet buildmaterial is toxic if ingested.
Uncured material is toxic if ingested. Uncured material must not be present where food and drink are stored,
prepared, or consumed and must not be ingested. After handling materials, wash hands with soap and cold
water before consuming or preparing food.
Inhalation: Under normal operation, inhalation is not an expected route of entry.
Contact With Uncured Material: Employees should be alerted to clean and rinse off any contacted surface
promptly in order to prevent further contamination. Ensure a convenient washroom location is provided with
access to soap, water, and disposable paper towels.
Handling Finished Parts: Finished (cured) parts can be handled or disposed of the same as standard
household plastic products. VisiJet parts are not recyclable. VisiJet materials are not intended for, and
cannot be used for medical implant or food or drink handling applications.
Exposure Control: The 3D printer system has a variety of built-in engineering controls which are designed to
prevent operator exposure. Do not try to change or disable these controls.

Packaging Inspection: VisiJet materials are supplied in bottles. These bottles are packaged with cardboard
packing material inside the shipping carton. Upon receipt of material shipments, inspect cardboard carton
exterior for signs of damage and leakage. If leakage is observed, DO NOT open carton, contact 3D Systems
Field Service Engineer or 3D Systems authorized servicepersonnel. If no leakage is observed, store shipping
carton until material is used.
Building: If uncured material is observed on the part or platform after build, this is an abnormal condition,
and is an indication the 3D printer system requires servicing by 3D Systems or an authorized servicing
reseller. Assume any liquid or paste-like material is buildmaterial. Do not directly touch uncured
buildmaterial without protective gloves and protective sleeves. Discontinue use of the 3D printer system,
pending service by a 3D Systems Technical Support Representative or your servicing reseller.
Flammability and Combustibility: Do not expose materials to heat at or above 230°F (110°C), ames,
sparks, or any source of ignition. (Though the U.S. Department of Transportation does not consider VisiJet
materials a “ammability hazard,” they do classify them “combustible” based on ash points.) For more
information on VisiJet material ash points and combustibility, see the VisiJet Post Processing Guide.
Personal ProtectiveEquipment
Skin Protection:  Performing some procedures in this manual will expose the user to uncured build
material. To prevent contact, wear a chemically resistant apron or lab coat, protective sleeves (Tyvex) and
chemically resistant protective gloves. Nitrile gloves are recommended. Do not use Latex gloves.
For some procedures, heat resistant gloves are required. Where a “heat resistant glove” is referenced, 3D
Systems recommends wearing a thermal liner with a nitrile glove worn over the liner. The thermal liner must
be capable of withstanding temperatures up to 90 degrees C.
Eye protection: In the event of a leak or spill of uncured buildmaterial, wear safety glasses with side shields
to provide eye protection.
Respiratory protection: Because of the 3D printer system’s built in engineering controls, respiratory
protection is not necessary during normal operation. A NIOSH-approved (or equivalent) dust mask is
recommended when dry sanding cured material parts.
First Aid Measures
General Information: Ensure that eyewash stations and safety showers are close to the workstation
location.
In case of inhalation: May cause respiratory irritation. Move affected person to fresh air. If respiratory
irritation occurs or if breathing becomes dicult, seek medical attention immediately.
In case of skin contact: May cause irritation or sensitization by skin contact , including redness and/or
swelling. Immediately ush skin with plenty of cold water. After the area has been thoroughly rinsed, use
soap and cold water to cleanse the area. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Get medical attention
if symptoms occur. Wash clothing before reuse.

plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Remove contact lenses immediately. Get medical attention if
symptoms persist.
In case of ingestion: Irritating to mouth, throat and stomach.  If ingested, drink plenty of water and seek
immediate medical attention. Do not induce vomiting.
Self-protection of the rst aider: Put on appropriate protective equipment (see section 7). Move exposed
person to fresh air. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes.
Ecological Information
Ecotoxicity: The aquatic toxicity of the product is unknown; however based on components, it is predicted
that uncured buildmaterial may be harmful to aquatic organisms or cause long-term adverse effects in the
aquatic environment. Prevent contamination of soil, drains and surface waters.
Regulatory Information
VisiJet support material has no known regulatory requirements.
In the U.S., uncured material is subject to special EPA disposal regulations and record-keeping
requirements. “Uncured VisiJet material” includes any buildmaterial bottles (empty or full) and waste bag,
and about half of the material in a waste bag is uncured buildmaterial. For complete disposal regulation
details, see thePost Processing Guide.
In the U.S., the following disposal records must be kept for ve years after the date of disposal:
The quantity of buildmaterial received (new or “virgin”).
The name and address of the shipping location (the “responsible party” - generally your waste disposal service
provider).
The quantity of buildmaterial shipped (disposed). For further information, see the Post Processing Guide.
For assistance, contact 3D Systems Technical Support.
Spilled VisiJet Material
Spills of material are highly unlikely and should NOT occur in normal operation of the 3D printer system.
The rst priority is to protect users from inadvertently touching material. Spills of support material can be
cleaned without use of protective gear, and disposed of as oce trash. Handling uncured buildmaterial
requires use of gloves, protective sleeves and other personal protective equipment to ensure no direct
contact with uncured buildmaterial. If you don’t know which material it is, assume it to be uncured
buildmaterial, and handle accordingly with the recommended personal protective equipment.
Promptly clean up spilled material, dispose of clean up materials and waste material per local regulatory
requirements. Discontinue use of the 3D printer system, and contact 3D Systems Technical Support for a
service visit to determine and repair the source of leakage.
Small spills of uncured liquid buildmaterial can be cleaned up using disposable towels, non-reusable rags,
or absorbing materials such as sawdust, clay, diatomaceous earth, or activated charcoal. If spilled material
is hot (liquid), wait until cools and gels before wiping up. After wiping up the spill, wipe surface with
denatured or isopropyl alcohol and clean thoroughly with soap and water.

Advise the service provider involved of the spilled material, and provide other material information prior to
contact with the material. Advise them of disposal requirements for buildmaterial and clean-up products if
buildmaterial (uncured) is the spilled material.
Tools contaminated with buildmaterial should be cleaned prior to reuse. Solvents such as denatured
alcohol or Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA), are normally required to clean equipment and tools. Wash with soap and
water to remove any traces of excess buildmaterial or solvent. Contact solvent suppliers for information on
proper handling of solvents if used for clean-up.
Waste Removal
WARNING: UNCURED BUILDMATERIAL IS A SENSITIZER. SKIN OR EYE IRRITATION COULD OCCUR
WHEN EXPOSED TO THE CHEMICAL COMPOSITION OF THE MATERIAL.

Wear protective gloves and protective sleeves before removing any waste product from the 3D printer
system. Be careful not to spill, drop, or expose others to these materials - particularly buildmaterial bottles
or waste bag. Dispose of all waste material appropriately per local regulatory requirements. Please refer to
the Safety Data Sheetsfor information regardingmaterial safety and handling.
Open waste drawer.
Remove the waste bag from the waste bag holder by lifting the waste bag straight up and out of the waste
drawer.
Seal bag and dispose according to your local regulatory guidelines.
Replace new waste bag by reversing the previous process. Close waste drawer after waste bag is installed.

Always check bottle’s expiration date before loading. Do not load bottles into 3D printer system if they are
about to expire. When 3D printer system detects an expired bottle, it aborts the build and rejects the bottle if
the expiration date has expired for support material or more than one year past the expiration date for
buildmaterial.

NOTE: When storing material bottles that have been used but still have materials in them, do not place
the bottles on their side; stand bottles in the upright position. Also, in the case where used bottles with
materials are removed from the MDM and are still warm, it must be stored with the cap vented. If the
warm bottle is not vented, the wax will contract during cooling and the bottle’s bottom may become at
which will prevent re-engagement in the MDM. See “Material Delivery Modules (MDM) and Material
Bottles” on page 25 for a description of the MDM.

Support material bottles must be loaded in the left side material delivery module. The buildmaterial bottles must be loaded
in the right material delivery module. Before loading material bottles into the 3D printer system, inspect bottles for signs of
damage or leakage. Do not load a damaged or leaking bottle. Dispose of them according to local regulations. 

AT A GLANCE
The ProJet® MJP 5600Printer
The ProJet® MJP 5600is a multi-jet 3D printing system. The solid imaging 3D printer system produces
plastic prototype parts from 3D solid Computer-Aided Design (CAD) models. File types include: .stl, .ctl, .obj,
.ply, .zpr, .zbd, .amf, .wrl, .3ds, .fbx, .mjpddd, .bdz, .iges, .igs, .step, .stp and.slc, The primary components are
the touchscreen, build chamber, material delivery modules (MDMs), and waste drawers.
The three dimensional solid parts built by the 3D printer system consist of one support material and one (or
two) part materials. The support material is a wax based material providing adhesion to the print platform,
as well as, providing supports for the part material to build the model.
The part material used to build parts is an ultraviolet (UV) curable material. After a layer of material is
deposited in the build chamber, the part is exposed to a UV ash lamp. The UV energy is absorbed by the
material converting the liquid build material to a solid polymer. When the build is complete the partis
adhered to the print platform by means of the support material.

