Inkjet printer JFX500-2131

Requests for Daily Care and Maintenance

This machine is a precision machine equipped with extremely fine mechanisms. Especially, the nozzle sur-

face of the heads from which the ink is discharged is affected even by a slightest attachment of dust or paper

powder and the proper printing results could not be obtained. With a view to using this machine in a better

condition, we would like to recommend performing the following care and maintenance on daily basis.

(1) Surroundings of the heads ("Cleaning the Head and the Area around It" Chapter 4 of

the Operation Manual)

1After removing the cover of the right side of the

flushing, move the carriage to the left edge of the

machine.

• Refer to the Step 1 to 5 of Chapter 4 “Cleaning the Head and

the Area around It” of the user’s manual to perform the

operation.

2Clean the head and the surrounding area.

• Gelled ink and dust could stick under the slider and the surroundings of the head.

• Scrape them off with clean stick etc. In this case, never rub the nozzle portion of the head.

• When possible, use the cleaning stick (SPC-0527) for cleaning around the head/ capping station/ wiper.

Using the other cotton bud may attach lint, then it may damage the machine.

• Be sure to perform maintenance for the ink cap and the wiper of capping station every day. If you leave it

dirty, dirt may adhere to the nozzle surface, or, dust and dry ink may be rubbed against the nozzle. It may

cause discharge defect.

• Clean the bottom of carriage every day so that it will not get dirt from inks or dusts. If you leave it dirty, dust

and dry ink may be rubbed against the nozzle at wiping operation when performing head cleaning.

• When you clean the carriage bottom surface, fully be careful not to rub the nozzle surface.

• The heads and their surroundings are the parts most liable to be tainted in this machine and if

tainted, it could cause adverse effects to the functions of the machine and the results of the printings.

Moreover, as the head itself uses very fine mechanisms, sufficient precautions are required for the

care and maintenances.

The nozzle part (Never

touch it.) Clean the side surface of the head (shown in deep gray) with a clean stick.

Clean with a clean stick

or a waste cloth.

(2) Capping Station ("Cleaning the Wiper and Cap" Chapter 4 of the Operation Manual)

The surrounding area of the cap is also liable to be stained by the dust and ink. It is recommended to clean

the head frequently using the cleaning liquid for maintenance suitable for the ink used to avoid the stains on

the head.
