Important operating notes

WARNING! Never leave the printer without supervision when the power switch is turned on.
CAUTION: Automatic white-ink system maintenance cannot occur when the printer is completely powered down. If the printer will be unused for a long period of time (more than 48 hours), leave only the white-ink switch turned on, and follow the instructions in the User Guide about power on/off modes.

Electrical shock hazard
WARNING! The internal circuits of curing zones, curing driver and built-in power supply operate at hazardous voltages capable of causing death or serious personal injury.
The printer uses two power cords. Unplug both power cords before servicing the printer. To avoid the risk of electric shock:

The printer must be connected to earthed mains outlets only.
Do not attempt to dismantle the curing modules.
Do not remove or open any closed system covers or plugs.
Do not insert objects through slots in the printer.

NOTE:A blown fuse may indicate malfunctioning electrical circuits within the system. Call your service representative, and do not attempt to replace the fuse yourself.

Checking the functionality of the Residual Current Circuit Breakers
Following standard Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) recommendations, it is recommended that the RCCBs are tested on a yearly basis.

The procedure is as follows:

Turn off the built-in computer using the Internal Print Server’s Shutdown button. Do not turn off the printer from the mains switch or the circuit breakers.NOTE:The shutdown process takes some time to complete. Wait until the green power-enabled light is off before proceeding.
Once the computer is off, test that the RCCB works correctly by pressing the test button.

If the RCCB does not trip when the test button is pressed, this indicates that it has failed. The RCCB must be replaced for safety reasons; call your service representative to remove and replace the RCCB.
If the RCCB trips, this indicates that it is working correctly; reset the RCCB to its normal on state.

Fire hazard

The drying and curing subsystems of the printer operate at high temperatures. Call your service representative if the printer’s built-in Residual Current Circuit Breaker (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) is repeatedly tripped. To avoid the risk of fire, take the following precautions:
Use the power supply voltage specified on the nameplate.

Connect the power cords to dedicated lines, each protected by a branch circuit breaker according to the rating of the wall socket. Do not use a power strip (relocatable power tap) to connect the power cords.
Take care not to spill liquid on the printer. After cleaning, make sure all components are dry before using the printer again.
Do not use aerosol products that contain flammable gases inside or around the printer.

Do not block or cover the openings of the printer.
Do not attempt to modify the drying or curing module, or the e-cabinet.
Ensure that the operating temperature of the substrate, as recommended by its manufacturer, is not exceeded. If this information is not available, ask the manufacturer. Do not load substrates that cannot be used at an operating temperature above 125°C ( 257°F).

Do not load substrates with auto-ignition temperatures below 250°C ( 482°F). If this information is not available, printing must be supervised at all times. See note below.NOTE:Test method based on EN ISO 6942:2002: Evaluation of materials and material assemblies when exposed to a source of radiant heat, method B.
The test conditions to determine the temperature when the substrate starts ignition (either flame or glow) were: Heat flux density: 30 kW/m², copper calorimeter, K-type thermocouple.
Proper maintenance and genuine HP consumables are required to ensure that the printer operates safely as designed. The use of non-HP consumables (foams, filters, printhead cleaner roll, and inks) may present a risk of fire.

The LED array supports, beam, and enclosures can reach high temperatures. To avoid the risk of fire, take the following precautions:
- Take special care with zones marked with warning labels.
- Do not place objects covering the LED array supports, beam, or enclosures.
- Take care not to spill liquid on the accessory. After cleaning, make sure all components are dry beforeusing the printer.
- Do not attempt to modify the LED array supports, beam, or enclosures.

Heat hazard

The drying and curing subsystems of the printer operate at high temperatures and can cause burns if touched.
Printzone lights, beam and enclosures can reach high temperatures. To avoid the risk of burns, take the following precautions:
Do not touch the internal enclosures of the printer’s drying and curing modules, nor the vapor removal thermal blankets.

Take special care when accessing the substrate path.
Take special care with zones marked with warning labels
Do not place objects covering the LED array supports, beam, or enclosures.

Do not attempt to modify the LED array supports, beam, or enclosures.
Remember to let the printer cool down before performing some maintenance operations.

Mechanical hazard
The printer has moving parts that could cause injury. To avoid personal injury, take the following precautions when working close to the printer:

Keep your clothing and all parts of your body away from the printer’s moving parts.
Avoid wearing necklaces, bracelets, and other hanging objects.
If your hair is long, try to secure it so that it will not fall into the printer.

Take care that sleeves or gloves do not get caught in the printer’s moving parts.
Avoid standing close to the fans, which could cause injury and could also affect print quality (by obstructing the air flow).
Do not touch gears or moving rolls during printing.

Do not operate the printer with covers bypassed.
Do not touch alignment or lateral bars during printing.

WARNING! Take care when loading or collecting substrate, and never put your hands below the alignment bar, drying beam, or curing modules after giving the command to print. Those parts may move and adjust automatically and can cause you serious injuries

For Roll Printing Kit accessory: Take care when using the air gun. When used for cleaning purposes, make sure to use it according to local regulations: additional safety provisions may apply.
Ensure that the tables are properly latched to the printer before using them. Before unlatching the table always clear it, remove and store both drop-in rollers in position before folding the table.

Light radiation hazard
UV radiation can be emitted from the LED array in compliance with the requirements of the exempt group of IEC 62471:2006: Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems. Optical barriers are used to determine the presence. However, you are recommended not to look directly for a long time at the output LEDs while they are on.

Sound pressure level
The sound pressure level could exceed 70 dBA in some print modes. Hearing protection may be required.

Chemical hazard
Safety data sheets identify ink ingredients and ventilation requirements to ensure any airborne exposure is adequately controlled.
Current printer ink systems material safety data sheets are available at: http://www.hp.com/go/msds

Air conditioning and ventilation should meet local environmental and health and safety (EHS) guidelines and regulations. For more detailed information, see the “Ventilation and air conditioning” section included in the site preparation guide, available at:
http://www.hp.com/go/latexR1000/manuals and http://www.hp.com/go/latexR2000/manuals

Heavy substrate hazard
Special care must be taken to avoid personal injury when handling heavy substrates.

Handling heavy substrate rolls always requires two people. Care must be taken to avoid back strain and/or injury.
Always use a forklift, pallet truck, or other handling equipment to lift substrates. The printer has been designed to be compatible with many of these devices.

Always wear personal protective equipment including boots and gloves.

Ink handling and condensates
HP recommends that you wear gloves when handling ink system components and condensates.

Ventilation
As with all equipment installations, to maintain ambient comfort levels, air conditioning and ventilation in the work area should take into account that the printer produces heat.
Air conditioning and ventilation should meet local environmental, health, and safety (EHS) guidelines and regulations.
For a more prescriptive approach to adequate ventilation, refer to the ANSI/ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers) 62.1-2013: Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality. An example minimum exhaust rate of 2.5 L/s.m² (0.5 cfm/ft²) of fresh air for “copy, printing rooms” is specified.

NOTE: The ventilation and air conditioning units should not blow air directly onto the printer.
NOTE: Maintaining positive air pressure in the print production room will help to prevent dust from entering the room.
IMPORTANT: Read and follow all safety precautions before installing and/or using any HP Latex printer accessory.
