Whilst these procedures are designed to keep your printer running smoothly after a shutdown
has occurred, please bear in mind that these printers are not designed to be unused for a
prolonged period of time, as stated in our warranty terms and conditions. We strongly
recommend that the printers are checked weekly or fortnightly (at least) by carrying out a
nozzle check, cleaning heads if required, as well as checking and emptying the waste ink
tank/tray. Please also check your ink levels to ensure ink is in the ink tanks.
Please retain nozzle checks and detail maintenance carried out
Process on return:
Purge all print heads and wipe clean manually using DT Purge again

Once maintenance has been carried out, complete normal daily maintenance of purging, nozzle

If you have any issues on return, InkTec can provide assistance at a reasonable charge.
