1.5 Cautions when use UV lamp

To reduce the risk of fire, or electric shock, connect the unit to a receptacle wired for the rating voltage of the unit. Consult a service engineer if voltage and frequency settings cannot be ascertained. The system must be shut down in the correct sequence to prevent impairing the lamp heads. The UV lamp should not be switched off by the mains on/off switch. Switch off by either of this mean can cause the lamps to overheat, causing permanent damage. It must be possible electrically isolate the mains power. Refer to country-specific wiring regulations for the power inlet lead. Do not occlude the vents at the front of the PSU, or at the back of the unit. Unimpeded airflow is essential for safe operation. Lamp cables must be fitted to the PSU. Cable forms first level safety against high voltage hazards. This unit must not be used until it is installed within a system of light shielding and air extraction or sufficient ventilation. Do not occlude the vents around the lamp heads. Unimpeded airflow is essential for safe
operation. Never look directly at A UV light source. UV light emitted from this system must be shielded from eyes and skin. Use UV radiation eye and skin protection during servicing. Before conducting any maintenance work on the UV system, it must be isolated from the electrical supply and must have had ample cooling time following being switched off. This UV lamp head produces ozone. The system must be ventilated so as not to allow an ozone concentration of more than 0.1 PPM.
1.6 Caution when use UV ink

Use exhaust ventilator to keep air fresh; Avoid breathing fume or mist. If inhaled, move to fresh air area and call a physician. When handle the ink, wear chemical resistant gloves and safety glasses or goggles to avoid contact with eyes, skin and clothing. Wash hands and face thoroughly after handling. In case of eye contact, immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at lease 15 minutes. If irritation develops, get medical attention. In case of skin contact, immediately wash skin with soap and plenty of water. If symptoms occur, get medical attention. Remove contaminated clothing and shoes. Wash clothing before reuse. Store the ink in a dark and tightly closed container in a cool (below 3030) and dry place away from heat, sparks, and flame. Exposure to radiation, oxidizers, high temperature, free radical initiators and inert gases may cause spontaneous polymerization, generating heat and pressure. Closed containers may rupture and / or explode during runaway polymerization. If ink leaks, stop leak. Eliminate all sources of ignition. Keep away from heat or flame. Absorb the material with inert substances (e.g. sand). Collect and put in a disposable container.

1Flush humectants out of print head

To moisturize print head, lots of humectants are injected into the head before it is used. The humectants must be flushed out for the first using. Before fix the head on the print head frame, do the steps as follows: Joint a filter on the In-pipe of the head, and then joint an injector--which fills with flush solution--on the filter. Inject 10-20 ml flush solution to the head to eject the humectants inside. Then fill the head with flush solution to dissolve the humectants completely within 5-10 minutes. Finally, flush the head with about 30ml flush solution to eliminate the humectants completely. Make sure to operate on a stable and clean platform. Cautions: 1. Clean platform for convenient operation; 2. Dont touch the surface of head and socket with hand; 3. Clean the filter with flush solution; 4. Connect a pipe on the exit of the head to prevent ink flowing into the socket; 5. Dont touch the surface of head with other objects; 6. Be careful to distinguish In pipe and Out pipe of the head; Eject flush solution from the nozzles with strength no more than 0.3 kg. (It is better to hold the injector with single hand and push it with the same thumb.)
2Extrude air from the print head

After fixing the head on the head frame (be cautious of the in pipe and out pipe). Remove the Cap from the Out pipe; positive-pressure clean to fill the head with ink till ink streams out from nozzles. During the process air is extruded completely from the head.
3Moisturize print head surface

After extruding air from the head, cover the Cap on the Out pipe. Positive-pressure clean again until ink streams out of the nozzles, then scrub the head surface with a dry clean stick to form a protecting layer of ink on the head surface. The ink on the surface will stream into the nozzles because of negative pressure.
Notes:
Never scrub the head surface when head surface is dry, for that will orient air into the nozzles and shape bubbles in the pipelines and affect the printing quality.
3.7.4 Cleaning and maintenance of the print head

1. Ink replace Flush the print head with the original ink first, and then flush it again with new flush solution, which matches the new ink. Avoid sunlight and irradiation of UV lamp when replace the ink. 2. Print head cleaning If low quality printing takes place, a positive-pressure cleaning is proper for the head. After positive pressure cleaning, scrub the head surface with a dry clean stick to stop ink streaming from the nozzles. Be sure not to use a stick with flush solution to scrub the head surface, otherwise, the flush solution will be siphoned into the nozzles. 3. Moisturize print head Use a dry-prevent bracket if the printer is left unused and always keep the bracket clean. Put a clean non-woven fabric on the sponge of bracket and drop some flush solution on it because the sponge usually has dust on it. Wrap the bracket with a black plastic cloth to avoid sunlight. If no dry-prevent bracket is ready, use a clean non-woven fabric with some flush solution on it to wrap the print head with a fresh-keep polyester film and then wrap it with a black plastic cloth.
3.8 Connect With Power

1. 2. After all the parts installed, move printer to its working area and clean up the package. Connect power cables, including power for printer and heater, printing data cable. Protective switch only works for heaters power. Usually this switch should be at status of On (switch on above, far from red point) 3. 4. 5. Movel the print head frame from right to left of printer to ensure no exceptional situation. Feed in media and printer enters waiting status. Then go in test printing. Observe ink drop. If not good, clean print head again.
3.9 Negative pressure adjustment

1. Functions of negative pressure:Negative pressure holds ink in the nozzles to prevent it dropping down from the print heads and keep ink in balance. 2. How to judge negative pressure if normal: Ink dripping on print head can be analysed to confirm negative pressure normal or not: First, press positive pressure cleaning key on cleaning operation panel, for appearing the ink dripping on print head. Then make it still and observe it sucked back slowly or dropping. If the ink dripping is dropping, it shows that the negative pressure value is too low. Generally speaking, the negative pressure value should be adjusted at the list value, which can ensure the ink dripping not dropping. For too high negative pressure, ink will be blocked or clogged during print; for too low negative pressure, ink cant be held in the nozzles. So print quality will be affectted.

Figure 3-8 negative pressure display panel and adjusting knob
3. How dose the user adjusts negative pressure parameters: If the negative pressure is too high or too low when using, users can adjust it in the negative pressure contiol panel, for changing the negative pressure parameters. The negative pressure parameter corresponds to the value which is displayed on negative pressure display panel. And the larger parameter, the higher negative pressure. If negative pressure value be set too high ot too low, buzzer will call to give alarm and the ERR4 will be displayed on diplay panel. 4.Attention: Negative pressure adjusting knob is used to adjust negative pressure pump working voltage. Users dont reset the voltage parameter, because the voltage parameter has be set right when leaving factory. Otherwise, working life of negative pressure pump will be affectted. Seriously, the negative pressure will out of control.

Remark1: Ink curve-Viscosity and Voltage
User can choose different curves for different ink types and different situations. We suggest to use the ink type we point and choose correspond curve. If youre using a different ink type, please contact us. Otherwise consequence are responsible.
Remark2: EF value setting Each Xaar126 head has its own EF value. Manufacture always provides a standard EF value, which is captured under standard condition. Users input this value at column Voltage. Usually, the printing effect is good. The value is marked on the head. It is also saved in the chip of print head driver. User can download it directly. If the voltage is too high, it produces the satellites and ink supply is easy to breakIf the voltage is too low, the printing line is not straight and easy to have an angle. Besides, ink volume is small and output color is light. Therefore, every head has its optimal EF value. When adjusting, you can adjust the EF value one by one. Usually user neednt to adjust EF value.
Note:
When install print head, select the 2 with same or similar EF value for 1 color, or it will cause different color of front and rear print heads.

7.3 Function Description

1. This system work automatically and control several pumps to supply ink simultaneously. When printer is power on, ink pump starts automatically to pump ink to assistant ink tanks from main ink tanks. 2. With perfect alarm and protection function. If any problem occurred in any pump, it will alarm and indicate which one is in trouble and the troubled one will not affect others. 3. Ink filter switches get signals through serial ports. 4. It is easy to connect it to other systems. All floating switches signals can be input by serial port or parallel port. 5. Main controller consists of micro CPU, which can check signals using software to filter out the false ones, which is helpful to make system work more reliably. The ink-pumping limit is controlled by intelligent control system of main control board; in case that the electric circuit will cause ink supply shortage.
7.4 Operation Description

Please read descriptions carefully for ink supply system, cleaning system and Ink Control system before starting the following operations. 1. 2. As soon as the printers powered on, system detects floating switch signal automatically, and then ink will be filled into sub-tank. If assistant ink tank lacks of ink, system will start the corresponding pump automatically. When ink reaches the floater switch, the sensor will send signal to main board and the pump will continue to work for a little period and then stop. 3. If ink pump runs overtime, the system will alarm (voice a straight buzz) and display Alarm information on the LCD. Press Enter on the control panel to cancel alarm and system goes back to auto-ink-supply process. 4. 5. When waste ink tank is full, system will alarm and display error message on the LCD. Empty the waste ink tank immediately. When safety tank is full, system will also alarm and display Alarm on the LCD. Empty the safety tank immediately.
7.5 Intelligent Detection Function

The system uses high frequent floater switch and adopts the conception of probability. The signal is regarded as effective only when the probability of floating switch signal is higher than the set value (for example, 80%). Therefore, wrong act of floater switch cant affect the system any more therefore improve the reliability of the system.
Chapter 8 Cleaning System

8.1 Summary
Print head clean is necessary when nozzles are clogged after long time printing, or even before printing. Positive pressure drives ink to print head and rush it-this is called Positive pressure cleaning. Its operated only by one press on the button. When finish one days work, clean the print head and cover the clog-prevent bracket on it and even wrap a black gobo on the bracket. If the printer will be left idle for a long period, clean the print head and fill it with solution, and also cover it with clog-prevent bracket. These will all protect the print head and prolong it life.

8.3 Function Description of Positive Pressure Cleaning

When you press clean button, the cleaning signal will be transport to air pump; air pump starts running and transports air pressure to valve; the air pressure raises in air tank and is transferred to assistant ink tanks through air channels. With pressure got from the air pump, ink rushes to print head and purges through the nozzles, so as to clean them.
8.4 Operation Description

Manual cleaning by positive pressure: When the PH carriage is at home position; press down clean button to launch positive pressure cleaning. Release the button when all nozzles purge normally. Positive cleaning finishes.
At least 2 channels should be unblocked for positive cleaning. Clamp the ink tubes above the assistant ink tanks of other channels to block the air pressure, therefore restrain cleaning.

When adjust each PH parameter, software and each PH on the print vehicle is one one correspondence ,this is important to each PH parameter adjustion. There are 12 heads on the UV160,4 colors printings, and the print head sequencing of the cyan cyan 2magentamagenta 2yellow and black,so the first thing when adjusting the print head is to adjust the same color print head vertically and horizontally. Chose cyan and cyan 2 in the printer setup:
Print grid (figure) under a microscope to observe the order until the coincidence of a line.
Adjust the color of magenta and magenta 2 in the same method. Take cyan and cyan 2 as datum,adjust the two groups of magentayellow and black respectively (as the chart shown),and the testing mode is unidirectional printing ,click print begins to print. button, then it
When the four colors are adjusting well,it can be adjusted using the grid method(as the chart shown) to adjust the superposition of four colors. Take one certain color as datum before adjustment (generally take cyan as datum), other colors overlap above this color . Pay attention to that one color have two print heads,therefore ,the print head parameters must change at the same time when adjusting superposition,otherwise, the first step to the adjustment will lose its role.
NoteThis type of printer cant use bi-direction mode to printing. Adjust feeding compensation, if the images printed have apertures, the feeding compensation should be minished,if superpose ,this value should be raised up. Test methods of the compensation value in other printing modes ibid. Observe the different situation of feeding compensation in magnifying glass:
Big
Small
Normal
Print dots with different feeding compensations
If the feeding compensation set too big, there is a gap between each pass printing. So reduce the parameter will help improve the print quality. If the compensation set too small there is overlap between each pass printing. So increase the parameter will help. Both affect the image quality. If a common mode, can be used directly ,and adjust it in the Adjustment\Rectangle of the equipment.
Note: Feeding compensation is different from the print mode, so adjust the feeding compensation for each print mode. 9.3 The commonly used tools of status bar There are several commonly used tools in the status bar:

9.4 Basic operation of RIP

APRINT RIP goes along with the printer; so refer to APRINT RIP Manual to get information about
installation and usage. Other RIP software, such as Photoprint, Onyx and Wasatch also apply to this printer. Refer to the manual for the installing and using information or contact the supplier for more details. Please close the printer driver software before opening RIP.
Chapter 10 Operation of UV lamp

10.1 Installation of UV lamp
Follow the steps to install UV lamp: 1. 2. Screw out the front bolt of UV lamp bracket and pull out the lamp. Fix the bracket on the fan cover and underlay a layer of heat insulation material under it. Load the lamp back into the bracket.
1 Fix the fan cover on the slider of PH carriage.
10.2 Usage of UV lamp

10.2.1 Start Up Install and connect the system as previously described. Ensure that the light shielding and extraction systems as required, are operational. The extraction system must be activated prior to switching on the lamps.
The system is activated by closing the Mains On/Off Switch on the rear of the power supply. The blue Mains On light will illuminate on the operators panel. At this point the cooling fan on the UV power supply will start.
10.2.2 Button operation Note: If a remote control unit is plugged in to the rear of the unit and a remote input signal is present. The On and increase / decrease buttons will not operate. The red off button will remain active.
Decrease Power
The UV lamp head is activated pressing either of the power switches (Increase or Decrease). The UV lamp will light and begin emitting UV light. The lower three indicator LEDs of the respective lamp will flash at rate of 1Hz, to indicate burn-in. The above two indicators flash showing the final power level selected. The Lamp head fan is switched off to enable the UV lamp head to reach its operating temperature. After a sixty-second pre-set time, the UV lamp head will be up to its normal operating temperature and the timer system will restart the lamp head cooling fan. After a pre-set time the indicators will cease flashing. This indicates that the UV system is ready for operation and so curing can commence. When a remote signal is present, the power level buttons are disabled. The lamp must be switched on by the remote signal. The red off button will work regardless of operation control.
10.2.3 Remote Control Units

For remote controlled systems, all operating signals are provided by the host machine. When an auxiliary remote control unit is used, the operation described previously will be present on the remote control unit.
10.2.4 Shut down The system must be shut down in the following sequence! The UV lamp head must be switched off using the UV Lamp Off Switch only.
As the UV lamp head is switched off using the UV Lamp Off Switch, the UV lamp will be shut down and the indicator lights will be switched off. The cooling fans will continue to operate in order to cool the lamp and power supply. The lamp must be left to cool under the operation of the cooling fan and the extraction system for at least 5 WARNING The UV lamp must never be switched off by the mains on/off switch, this can over heat the lamp causing permanent damage. The extraction system must never be switched off before the UV lamp is switched off.
10.2.5 Re-strike
When the UV system is shut down from operating temperature, it cannot be re-stuck (re-ignited) until the lamp has cooled down. This can take up to three minutes. UV lamps are created by an arc, which may take up to five seconds to strike. Normal operation requires the fans to run for five minutes following shut down off the lamp. When a remote signal is present, the power level buttons are disabled. The lamp must be switched on by the remote signal. The red off button will work regardless of operation control.
10.2.6 System Stop The normal stop procedure is to press the red button for the respective lamp, on the front of the unit. When it is pressed. The system will enter a three-minute cool down process. All activity is inhibited whilst the fans in the lamp head operate at full power. The fan in the PSU will continue to operate. If the power supply has been subjected to an emergency stop situation, i.e. the power has been suddenly removed from the unit. It is possible that the lamp heads will be extremely hot. The internal controller will be reset as the result of the power loss, and hence the cooling fans and hot restrike suppression will not be activated. It is essential that the system be left to fully cool for ten minutes. If the unit does not immediately restrike on attempted operation, switch off immediately and leave for a further two minutes. Repeat this until the lamp ignites. Sudden removal of power and the subsequent uncontrolled shut down force the lamp to cool down in an uncontrolled manner. This significantly reduces the life of the lamp and lamp housing. WARNING: It is not recommended that the system be shut down in this manner except in a true emergency situation.
Chapter 11Maintenance
11.1 Daily Maintenance
Daily maintenance is very important to protect the printer and prolong the life of print heads. Daily maintenance includes: Maintenance after each printing Erasure dried ink from print head surface with flush solution Restore the jammed nozzles before next printing Each 8 hours Oil the print head rail and clean the dust from it once each 8 hours Daily work Check filter and seeper of the pump, clean it if necessary Check waste ink tank, cleanup if necessary Check the waste ink groove on the startup position and clean it if necessary Check the sponge on the wet-keeping frame, clean or replace it if necessary Clean feeding and take-up rollers with PM acetate. Skid on the rubber roller will cause error code from service and impact print quality. Do normal clean for the printer everyday Weekly work Check negative pressure route if there is any loose. Monthly work Clean the floater switches in assistant ink tanks; Clean the filters of C, M, Y , K LC and Lm; Check 6 valves of positive pressure clean if there is any leak of ink. Clean them with flush solution if necessary; Clean dust in the power tank; Oil the pumps. yearly work Replace ink filters Blower the dust on power tank with compress air Clean the main ink tank Clean the ink supply routes Clean the liquid pumps for ink supply Oil the gears of feeding and take-up motors. Check whole circuit if there is any loosen or broken. Repair it in time if necessary Check if there is any tear on the pipe and wire in the towline set and replace it if necessary
11.2 Maintenance of print head

If the printer is left unused, the print head must be kept in wet by wet-keeping frame,and should pay attention to the frames clean,and in this way can reduce the dry of print head.
11.2.1 Moisturizing of print head

If the printer is left unused for 3 day and above, cover the print head by wet-keeping frame with UV ink on it and this would avoid the dry of the printing ink. If the printer is left unused for a week above, clean the whole pipeline and the print head by using flush solution ,then cover it by wet-keeping frame ,finally, wrap the print head unit with fresh-keeping. Dip the unwoven fabric with flush solution 1 Cover the unwoven fabric on the surface of print head 2 Wrap the print head unit with fresh-keeping polyethylene film 3 Cover the wet-keeping frame the print head
