Power Down and
Restart
UNDER NORMAL OPERATION, DO NOT POWER DOWN THE
PRINTER. Constant vacuum at the printheads is required to pre-
vent ink from running out of the printheads. Also, power must not
be removed suddenly from the UV lamp system; permanent
damage to the lamps could occur if hot lamps are not cooled
according to specifications.
If the power must be removed for a brief period of time, the ink
will no longer be held inside the printheads by the vacuum/pres-
sure system, so it will to drain onto the drip tray. Optionally, you
can maintain power to the vacuum system by using the auxiliary
24 volt power supply. This will prevent ink from running out of the
printheads. See Appendix A, Specifications for instructions.
If the printer will be powered down for an extended period, con-
tact Technical Services for instructions.
