High image quality and High-speed printing realized by the new generation printer head.

Newly developed printer head, 1 head consisting of 1440 nozzles (180 nozzles x 8 lines), is adopted.

High image quality and High-speed printing is enabled by adopting the variable dots technology.

Double cartridge automatic change function (In case of the 4-colors mode)

Long-run printing is enabled by the ink capacity of 880 cc /1 color by adopting the ink cartridge (2 cartridges /1 set) automatic change function.

ES3 ink of the ecological design friendly to human and SS21 suitable for outdoor signs are prepared. (In case of solvent ink used)

ES3 ink requires no special deodorizing equipment and has almost no irritating odor peculiar to a solvent, so that this ink is made by the ecological design friendly to human and environment, and suitable for a designer and operator who cares about odor.

SS21 is suitable for outdoor signs and superior to water resistance and weather resistance. No special handling nor license is required since an organic rule is not applied to this ink.

Sublimation dye ink and aqueos color pigment ink enabling High image quality and High-speed printing are usable.

Sublimation dye ink (Sb51) is used when drawn images are transferred to other medias.

Aqueos color pigment ink is superior to light resistance and suitable for outdoor prints such as large-sized sign displays. (Signboards)

Indication of the ink Remains

Since the amount of ink that remains can be checked even during operation of the machine, you can use the ink and media without waste.

Intelligent heater equipped

Heaters are arranged at 3 locations of the Pre-heater, Print heater and Post-heater and the temperature of each heater is independently adjustable.

Heating temperature is also adjustable to the temperature suitable for the media used since the intelligent function consisting of Standby mode and Auto shut-off is provided so that the temperature is controlled detecting the environmental temperature.

Easy maintenance

The automatic capping system for the heads eliminates the need of head cleaning before turning off the power. Ink discharge passage is automatically cleaned from the cap.

Nozzles can be unclogged by performing the cleaning function.

If the machine is not in use for a prolonged period of time, it automatically performs nozzle clogging preventive operation at fixed intervals. However, the main power must be left turned on.

The machine counts the time when not in use. When the power is turned on or when printing is started, the machine automatically performs head cleaning to prevent nozzle clogging.

Convenient direct keys

Use of the direct keys permits quick access to the respective various built-in functions.

Set of the drawing origin by LED pointer

For easy setting of the drawing origin changed, positioning can be done by a light point of the LED pointer equipped on the carriage.

Printing information can be checked

The print length can be displayed on the LCD panel during printing and the information of printing conditions can be checked by printing it.

High-speed interface

The "USB 2.0" interface allows for high-speed data reception from the computer.

Take-up Device permits printing over a long length

Even a long sheet of media can be used, since the take-up device interlocked with the machine winds up the printed part of the sheet during printing.

A media support bar newly provided

The machine is provided with a media support bar at the back. It is useful when a heavy roll of media, such as Tarpaulin, is set on the machine.

CAUTIONS and NOTES

Warning
Handling of ink cartridges Front cover and lever
Use the JV33 genuine ink. Remember that the user shall be filled for a repair to correct any damage resulting from the use of ink other than the exclusive type.The machine does not operate with any ink other than the JV33 genuine ink.Do not use the JV33 genuine ink with other printers, as doing so may cause damage to such machines.Never refill the ink cartridge with ink. Refilled ink cartridge can cause a trouble. Remember that MIMAKI assumes no responsibility for any damage caused by the use of the ink cartridge replenished with ink.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 tank 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.Neither pound the ink 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.Waste ink is equivalent to waste oil of industrial waste. Request an industrial waste disposal company for disposal of waste ink.	Never open the front cover or raise the lever during printing. Opening the cover or raising the lever will abort printing.
	Handling of mediaUse media recommended by MIMAKI 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.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.
	Protection of media from dustStore 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.
Notes on maintenance
It is strongly recommended to use the machine in a room that is not dusty. Set the Refresh level 2 or 3 when the machine is to be used in an unfavorable environment. (P.3-29 "Setting of Refreshing")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.3-22 "Setting Auto cleaning")When cleaning the ink-station or the heads, make sure to wear the attached gloves. Further, when the solvent ink is used, it is necessary to wear the attached goggles.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.

Caution in handling of ink cartridges

• An organic solvent is used in solvent ink. When ink sticks on skins, wash it with soapy water immediately then rinse it off with water fully. 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 eyes to rinse ink away completely. Then, consult a doctor as soon as possible.
• 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.
• 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.
• Make sure to store ink cartridges in a cool and dark place.
• Store ink cartridges and waste ink tank in a place that is out of the reach of children.
• Request an industrial waste processor for processing of empty ink cartridges.
• Do not shake ink cartridges violently. This may result in ink leakage from the ink cartridges.
• Never refill the ink cartridges with ink. This may result in troubles.
  MIMAKI will not bear any responsibility for any damage caused by the use of the ink cartridges refilled with ink.
• Do not touch or stain the contacts of the ink cartridge. This may cause damages on printed circuit boards.
• Do not disassemble the ink cartridges.

For the adjusting lever and the range

Range	Height adjusting lever	Head height Switching area
L range (General printing)	Thin : light-weight	2mm (The set position at shipping)	Switch by user	Contact to our sales office for switching L <-> H by field person.
	Thick : heavy-weight	3mm
H range (Transfer type printing)	Thin : light-weight	4mm
	Thick : heavy-weight	5mm

• Set the lever to "Thick" when a thicker media such as a tarpaulin or FF is used.

• Set the lever to the lower stage (Thick) if dust is likely to gather in the head or the head is likely to rub on the media to leave ink on it.

• If solvent ink is selected, do not use with H range. It adversely affects the image quality.

• When using the media of 1mm thickness or below and SS21 ink, be sure to set the head height to "Thin".

If using with the head height "Thick", as the head gap (between the media and the height of head nozzle surface) can be too large and ink drops may be splashed, the image quality cannot be assured.

- When the ink is changed from dye ink to aqueous ink, or on the contrary, after the machine is installed, the adjustment is required for the head initial height (H/L range). Consult with our sales office about it.

Setting media compensation

Correct the feeding rate of media after the type of media is replaced or the temperature of Heater is changed.

If the correction value is not appropriate, stripes may appear on the print, thus resulting in a poor print.

Important!

• When any heater temperature is changed, first make sure that the [CONSTANT] lamps light and the preset temperatures have been reached, and then start correction.
• On completion of [MEDIA COMP.] during use of a roll media, the media returns to the printing origin. Then the roll media in the rear of this machine will slacken.
  Before printing, take up the slack in the roll media by hand; a loose roll media can result in an inferior image quality.
• When printing is to be performed while using the take-up device, set the media first and then perform [MEDIA COMP.].

Setting media compensation

Print the compensation pattern then correct the feeding rate of media.

• Print two bands as the compensation pattern.
• Adjust so that an even color density is obtained around the boundary between the two bands.

Adjusting suitable temperature adjustment (When solvent ink is used)

This section describes the procedure for setting the heater temperatures properly.

The proper heater temperatures depend on the media type and ambient temperature. Set temperatures that are appropriate to the media. For non-coated media or media on which ink is slow to dry, set the heater temperatures so that the ink fixing and drying characteristics will be improved.

In case the heater temperature is too low

When solvent ink is used, this may result in printing failures such as beading or banding if the heater temperature or the ink acceptable amount (the ink limit) is too low.

Beading is a phenomenon that adjacent dots attract each other and join. Beading causes speckled patterns or stripes along printing passes (banding.)

Example of beading

The area in 100% magenta looks fine. Generally, the area in 70-100% single color is easily affected by the unevenness of media feed rate. The print shown here, free from unevenness of color in the vicinity of 100% magenta area, signifies that media feeding has been adjusted properly.

Abstract geometric pattern with overlapping circles and diagonal lines, no text or symbols present

Fine looking print

In the blue area (100% magenta + 100% cyan), however, speckled patterns and banding occur. This banding is a result of beading. If heater temperatures are low or the ink capacity (ink limit) of the media is low, the first dot does not solidify before the second dot lands on the media. As a result, dots bond to each other and unevenness or banding occurs.

In order to avoid beading, it is recommended to raise the heater temperatures, to raise the ink capacity (ink limit) of the media, to adjust the ink volume per dot for the media, to increase the number of printing passes and decrease the ink amount for one shot, and/or to gain time by scan wait. Change media if none of the above-mentioned measures works to prevent beading.

Setting Auto cleaning

The machine is settable so that the head cleaning is automatically carried out when printing is completed for the set length.

At the completion of printing, the machine counts the length printed after the previous head cleaning and performs the cleaning automatically if required.

Reliable output results are always ensured if the heads are always kept clean.

The first cleaning is performed immediately before the first printing after the machine is started. Then subsequent cleaning is performed every printing on the specified length of media.

When five copies of an image 80 cm long are printed in series, cleaning is repeated before printing each of the 1st, 3rd, and 5th copies.

Precautions in cleaning

Pay attentions to the following items when the machine is maintained.

	·When using the cleaning solution, be sure to wear the supplied protective glasses.
	·The ink contains an organic solvent. When performing cleaning, be sure to wear gloves so that no ink will come in contact with your skin.
	·Never disassemble the machine. Disassembling it can result in electric shock hazards or damage to the machine.Before starting maintenance work, be sure to turn off the 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 reliable ink jetting, it is necessary to have the machine perform ejection of a fine amount of ink (flushing) periodically while printing (output) is suspended for an extended period of time.·When printing is to be suspended for a long time, turn off only the power switch in the front of the machine; leave the main power switch at the rear of the machine turned ON (in the position of | ) and leave the power cable connected.
	·If organic solvent ink is mixed with water or alcohol, coagulation occurs.Do not wipe the nozzle face of the heads, the wiper or caps with water or alcohol. Doing so can cause nozzle clogging or machine failure.·Do not use benzine, thinner, or any chemical agent containing abrasives. Such materials can deteriorate or deform the surface of covers.·Do not apply lubricating oil or the like to any part inside the machine. Doing so can cause printing failure.·Be careful not to allow the cleaning solution or ink to adhere to covers, as this may cause deterioration or discoloring of the surface of covers.

Notes on cleaning solution

Use the cleaning liquid dedicated for the ink being used.

Type of Ink Applicable maintenance washings
SS21 Solvent ink	Cleaning solution MS2/ES3/HS kit (SPC-0369)MILD SOLVENT WASHING LIQUID (SPC-0294)[Sold separately]
ES3 Solvent ink
Aqueos pigment ink	Cleaning Liquid Bottle Kit A29 (SPC-0137) [Sold separately]Aqueos Cleaning Liquid Cartridge (SPC-0259) [Sold separately]
Sublimation dye ink (Sb51)

Cleaning exterior surfaces

If exterior surfaces of the machine is stained, dampen a soft cloth with water or a neutral detergent diluted with water, squeeze it and wipe the surfaces with the cloth.

Line drawing of a hand pressing down on an air conditioner unit with directional arrows indicating motion (no text or symbols)

Cleaning the platen

On the platen, it is easy to become dirt due to lint, paper dust or the like caused by cutting medias. For a conspicuous stain, wipe it off with a soft-hair brush, a dry cloth, a paper towel or the like.

- If it is stained with ink, wipe it off with a paper towel containing a little amount of the cleaning solution.

Diagram showing a hand cleaning or cleaning surface with arrows indicating direction (no text or symbols present)

Important!

• Before starting to clean the platen, make sure that the platen has cooled adequately.
• Be sure to clean the slot for media pressing, the slot for paper cutting (the cutter line) or the like since dust and dirt are easily accumulated in these parts.

Cleaning the media sensor

A media sensor is located at the platen on the backside. It may cause misdetection of media when dust or the like is accumulated on the sensor.

Using a cotton swab, clean the surface of the sensor of dust and dirt.

When cleaning the sensor on the lower surface of the head is cleaned, move the carriage to the left end by the operations of step 1 of P.4-16 "Cleaning the heads and their surrounding parts", and then clean it.

Cleaning the media press

Media feeding may not operate properly in printing if cutting waste, dust or the like is accumulated on the media press, nor may print properly if dust or the like sticks to the nozzle.

Clean the media press periodically.

Maintaining Capping station

Maintain Ink cap, Wiper or the like, which are located in the capping station. [ST.MAINTENANCE]

The ink cap and wiper function respectively as follows.

• Wiper : Wiping ink sticking to the head nozzle off.
• Ink cap : Preventing the head nozzle from clogging due to drying.

As the machine is used, the wiper and ink caps gradually become stained with ink and dust.

Clean it with the cleaning solution and a cotton swab unless nozzle missing is cleared even after the head cleaning.

If nozzle missing cannot be corrected even after executing the Head Cleaning (P.2-21), use Cleaning kit and cotton swab.

Tools required for Maintenance	• Cleaning solutionWhen solvent ink is used:Cleaning solution MS2/ES3/HS kit (SPC-0369)When aqueos ink is used :Cleaning Liquid Bottle Kit A29 (SPC-0137)
	• Cotton swab • Gloves •	Goggles

• Be sure to wear the attached goggles and gloves for works when the maintenance of the capping station is performed. If not, ink may be caught in your eyes during the works.
• Do not move the carriage out of the capping station by hand.
• When it is desirable to move the carriage, press the key to execute the carriage-out. (P.4-5 the step 1 - 2)

Cleaning the wiper and ink caps

It is recommended to perform cleaning frequently in order to maintain the high image quality and keep the machine in good condition.

• When SS21 ink is used, the ink sticks around the wiper easily. Clean the wiper and surroundings about twice in a week (it varies, depending on frequency of use of the machine.)
• Replace the wiper with a new one if it is badly soiled or curled. (P34-7)
• Be careful not to leave lint of the cotton swab. Lint may cause printing failure.

[#01] !WASTE TANK

- When the power switch on the front of the machine is turned off, check the waste ink tank.

Setting Routine wiping operations in Standby mode

Ink dew condensation on the nozzle surface is preventable by performing the wiping operation automatically when the number of scans reaches the set value in printing.

In the following cases, ink splashing, ink dropping or nozzle missing may occur on printing.

It is recommended to maintain the comfortable printing condition at all times by setting the periodic wiping.

• When the print heater has been set at high temperature.
• When the printing ink amount has been set plenty (High density, Double printing, etc.)

The cause of these phenomena is such that the ink of the print is heated by the print heater immediately after printing and evaporated solvent may condense on the nozzle face.

The greater the difference between the setting temperature of the print heater and the ambient temperature is, the more easily ink can condense.
