CAUTIONS and NOTES
Warning
Handling of ink cartridges
Front cover and lever
• The safety evaluation of this machine assumes that • Never open the front cover or raise the lever during
the ink recommended by this company is used. For
safe usage of this machine, use the ink recommend
by this company
• Never refill the ink pack and white ink cartridge with
ink. Refilled ink cartridge can cause a trouble.
Remember that RICOH assumes no responsibility for
any damage caused by the use of the ink cartridge
replenished with ink.
printing. Opening the cover or raising the lever will
abort printing.
Handling of media
• Use media recommended by RICOH to ensure
reliable, high-quality printing.
• Set the heater temperature to meet the characteristics
of the media.
Set the temperature of the Pre-heater, Print heater and
Post-heater according to the type and characteristics
of the media used. Automatic temperature setting can
be made on the operation panel by setting the profile
on the dedicated RIP. For setting on the RIP, refer to
the instruction manual for your RIP.
• If the ink cartridge is moved from a cold place to a
warm place, leave it in the room temperature for three
hours or more before using it.
• Open the ink cartridge just before installing it in the
machine. If it is opened and left for an extended
period of time, normal printing performance of the
machine may not be ensured.
• Make sure to store ink cartridges in a cool and dark
place.
• Store ink cartridges and waste ink bottle in a place
that is out of the reach of children.
• Be sure to thoroughly consume the ink in the ink
cartridge, once it is opened, within three months. If an
extended period of time has passed away after
opening the cartridge tank, printing quality would be
poor.
• Pay attention to the expansion and contraction of the
media.
Do not use media immediately after unpacking. The
media can be affected by the room temperature and
humidity, and thus it may expand and contract.The
media have to be left in the atmosphere in which they
are to be used for 30 minutes or more after unpacked.
• Do not use curled media.
The use of curled media can not only cause a media
jam but also affect print quality.
Straighten the sheet of media, if significantly curled,
before using it for printing. If a regular-sized coated
sheet of media is rolled and stored, the coated side
has to face outside.
• Do not leave the media with the heater ON for a long
time.
• Neither pound the Eco-cartridge nor shake it violently,
as doing so can cause leakage of ink.
• Do not touch or stain the contacts of the ink cartridge,
as doing so may cause damage to the print circuit
board.
• Consult your sales or service representative for
proper disposal of ink cartridge, ink pack, and waste
ink. Otherwise, commission an industrial waste
disposal company.
Protection of media from dust
• Store media in a bag. Wiping off dust accumulated on
media will adversely affect the media due to static
electricity.
• When leaving the workshop after the working hours,
do not leave any media on the roll hanger. If any
media is left on the roll hanger, it can get dusty.
Warning
Notes on maintenance
• It is strongly recommended to use the machine in a room that is not dusty.
• Keep the front cover closed even when the machine is not printing. If not, dust can accumulate on the nozzles
in the heads.
• Dust in the heads can also cause drops of ink to fall suddenly down on the media during printing. In such a
case, be sure to clean up the heads. (P.4-13 “Cleaning the Head and the Area around It (every day)”)
• When cleaning the ink-station or the heads, make sure to wear the attached gloves.
• Perform wiping (removal of dust and paper powder) of the capping station and wiper frequently.
Periodic replacement parts
• Some parts of this machine must be replaced with a new one periodically by service personnel. Be sure to
make a contract with your distributor or dealer for After sale service to ensure a long life of your machine.
Disposition of this machine
• Consult your sales or service representative for proper disposal of this machine. Otherwise, commission an
industrial waste disposal company.

About the ink that can be used with this machine
The following three types of ink sets can be used with this machine: 4 color, 6 color, and 6 color+white versions
• 4-color version: 2 each of Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Black ink cartridges are used.
• 6-color version: 1 each of Yellow, Orange, Green, and Black, 2 each of Cyan and Magenta ink cartridges are
used.
• 6-color+white version: 1 each of Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Orange, Green and Black, and 2 White ink
cartridges are used.
White ink is fed from an ink cartridge, but the inks for Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Orange, Green and Black are
supplied from an ink-pack. Set the inks in the eco case before you set the ink cartridge. Also, the white ink is
contained in a eco cartridge that is shorter in length than the cartridge of Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, Orange,
Green and Black inks.
Slowly shake the white ink cartridge more than twenty times right and left.

• To prevent ink from leaking when you shake the Eco-cartridge, wear gloves and firmly cover the A part
of the upper surface of the cartridge and the B part of the bottom surface of the Eco-cartridge with paper
towels. Then, shake it more than twenty times right and left so that ink flows inside the cartridge.
• If you shake it too strong, the pack inside may be damaged and it may cause ink
leakage. Therefore, perform this carefully.
• If the remaining amount of ink is less, ink in the Eco-cartridge cannot be beaten enough.
Tilt the cartridge until it becomes vertical.
• When you use white ink:

Caution in handling of ink cartridges
• If you get ink in your eyes, immediately wash your eyes with a lot of clean running water for at
least 15 minutes. In doing so, also wash the eyess to rinse ink away completely. Then, consult
a doctor as soon as possible.
• Depending on how the machine is used, the [INK END] message may be displayed even if the
[INK NEAR END] message is not yet displayed. The remaining amount of ink in a cartridge is
calculated based on the printed data and the estimated amount of ink used by maintenance
processes, and may not show the actual amount of ink in the cartridge.
• Use genuine ink cartridges for this machine. This machine functions by recognizing the
genuine ink cartridges. In case of troubles caused by modified ink cartridges or the like, it shall
be out of the warranty even within the warranty period.
• If the ink cartridge is moved from a cold place to a warm place, leave it in the room temperature
for three hours or more before using it.
• Make sure to store ink cartridges in a cool and dark place.
1
• Store ink cartridges and waste ink bottle in a place that is out of the reach of children.
• Request an industrial waste processor for processing of the ink cartridges that are no longer
required.
• Do not shake ink cartridges violently. This may result in ink leakage from the Eco-cartridges.
• Do not refill the ink in the ink-pack and white ink cartridge. This may result in troubles.
RICOH will not bear any responsibility for any damage caused by the use of the ink cartridges
refilled with ink.

Caution in handling of medias
Pay attention to the followings for handling of medias.
• When handling media, wear the gloves.
If you touch the media with your bare hand, the media may be stained due to fingerprints or oil of your
finger. Be careful about it.
• Do not leave the media with the heater ON for a long time.
Waviness may occur on the media and it may cause media clogging.
When the pinch roller is at the lower position, even if it is for a short time, impression produced by the
pinch roller is left depending on the media material. Perform test feeding (
media status.
• Use media recommended by RIOCH to ensure reliable, high-quality printing.
Set the heater temperature to meet the characteristics of the media.
• Set the temperature of the Pre-heater, Print heater and Post-heater according to the type and
characteristics of the media used.
Automatic temperature setting can be made on the operation panel by setting the profile on the
dedicated RIP. For setting on the RIP, refer to the instruction manual for your RIP.
• Pay attention to the expansion and contraction of the media.
Do not use media immediately after unpacking. The media can be affected by the room temperature
and humidity, and thus it may expand and contract.
The media have to be left in the atmosphere in which they are to be used for 30 minutes or more after
unpacked.
• Do not use curled media.
This may result in paper jamming.
If a regular-sized coated sheet of media is rolled and stored, the coated side has to face outside.
• Be careful to dusts on the edge face of the medium.
Some rolls have dusts contained in the package gathered on the edge surface of the roll. If you use as
it is, the drawing quality may be degraded due to nozzle missing or ink drops. Be sure to set the roll
after removing dusts adhering on the edge face of the roll.
• Use a media wider than 450 mm when performing the ink drop position correction for bidirectional
printing. Correcting the ink drop position for bidirectional printing cannot be performed on narrower
media. Use unidirectional printing in such a case. Also, select [STRONG] in the [VACUUM] setting if the
media is not securely adhered to the media transfer surface when using a media such as narrow media.

Cautions about Turning the Power OFF
Q Do not turn the main power switch OFF.
When the main power switch is ON, the power periodically turns ON and the nozzle clogging prevention
function (flushing function) operate.
When the main power switch has been turned OFF, the auto maintenance functions, such as flushing, do
not operate, and this may cause nozzle clogging.
Q Keep the front cover and the maintenance cover closed.
If the cover is opened, the auto maintenance function such as the flushing function does not work.
Q Turn the power OFF after having checked the position of the head.
If the power is turned OFF in a state where the head has not returned to the capping station, the head
dries, which may cause nozzle clogging.
In this case, turn the power ON again and check that the head has returned to the capping station, and
then turn the power OFF.
Q Do not turn the power OFF during printing.
The head may not return to the capping station.
Q After having turned the power switch OFF, turn the main power switch OFF.
When turning the main power switch off for moving the machine or for solving the error or the like, press
the power switch on the front of the machine, check the display is turned off on the operation panel, and
then turn the main power switch off.

Maintenance
Maintain the machine regularly or as necessary so that its accuracy will be maintained and it can continue to be
used for a long time.
Precautions for Maintenance
Pay attention to the following items when maintaining this machine.
• When using Cleaning Fluid for maintenance, be sure to wear the supplied protective glasses.
• The ink contains organic solvent.When cleaning the machine, be sure to wear gloves so that
no ink will make direct contact with your skin.
• Never disassemble the machine.Disassembling it can result in electric shock hazards or
damage to the machine.
Before maintenance, be sure to turn off the power switch and main power switch, and unplug
the power cable;otherwise, an unexpected accident may occur.
• Prevent moisture from entering the machine.Moisture inside the machine can cause electric
shock hazards or damage to the machine.
• To ensure stable ink jetting, it is necessary for the machine to eject a small amount of ink
(flushing) regularly when a printing (outputting) operation has not been performed for a long
time.
• When the machine is not to be used for a long time, turn off only the power switch on the front
side, leave the main power switch at the side turned ON (in the position of | ), and leave the
power cable connected.
• If organic solvent ink is mixed with water or alcohol, coagulation is generated.
Do not wipe the nozzle face of the heads, wiper, caps, etc. with water or alcohol.Doing so can
cause nozzle clogging or machine failure.
• Do not use benzene, thinner, or any chemical agent containing an abrasive.Such materials
can deteriorate or deform the surface of the cover.
• Do not apply a lubricant, etc. to any parts inside the machine. Doing so can cause printing
failure.
• Be careful that the Cleaning Fluid, ink, etc. not to stick to the cover because this may cause
the surface of the cover to deteriorate or deform.

cloth, a paper towel, etc.
• When the Media Transfer Surface is
stained with ink, wipe it off with a paper
towel containing a small amount of
Cleaning Fluid for maintenance.
• Before cleaning the Media Transfer Surface, make sure that the Media Transfer Surface has cooled
adequately.
• Because dust and dirt are easily accumulated in the slots for holding a media and cutting paper (cutter
slot), be sure to clean these parts carefully.
Cleaning of after heater cover and pre heater cover
The after heater cover and the pre heater cover are easy to be dirty because of the powder of the medium etc.
