Printer Maintenance
The Arizona T220UV operator is responsible for the manual maintenance of the
printer. This section provides detailed information regarding printer maintenance.
7.1
Maintenance Guidelines
While Océ Display Graphics Systems furnishes guidelines for periodic maintenance,
the optimum maintenance schedule evolves from careful observation of your Arizona
T220UV printer over a period of use. For example, some specified maintenance may
be required each time you use a particular media. The type of print job can also
determine the maintenance schedule. If the printer produces a high volume of solid fill
prints, the printer requires more tending than if it prints low-coverage images.
Océ Display Graphics Systems requires that the operator follows minimum cleaning
guidelines as described in this User Manual. A few minutes spent cleaning helps to
ensure the highest quality prints.
Each production situation is different and involves different types of print jobs,
environmental conditions, duty cycles, and volume of work. While Océ furnishes
guidelines for periodic maintenance, the optimum maintenance schedule depends on
operator observation of the printer over a period of use.
7.1.1
Who Should Do Maintenance?
If your site has a technician in charge of printer maintenance, that person is the optimal
candidate. While routine maintenance may be performed by any trained operator, the
best maintenance results from familiarity with the printer's internal operation and
history.
Important: Keeping the printer clean, especially all parts associated with the print heads,
assures that your printer performs at its optimum and make it easier to
diagnose a problem, such as a leak. Daily cleaning is mandatory and cleaning
all mechanical parts on the printer array is highly recommended.
