Important Operating Notes 1-15
• The Media Wizard stores a set of operational parameters for
predefined and user-defined media types. When you load a
new media type, select an existing Media Wizard set, or cre-
ate a custom set. Media Wizard parameter sets can be
selected at any time from the control panel.
• Enable AutoTune during long periods of unattended print-
ing. AutoTune runs AutoJet at user-defined intervals to
ensure that all jets are either working or substituted with
working jets. (See “AutoTune” on page 4-4 for instructions.)
• Wear cotton gloves when loading media to prevent finger-
prints that could show after printing.
• DO NOT rest or store a media roll on end, or you could
cause edge creases that could strike the printheads during
printing.
• DO NOT clean the printhead surfaces with a dry cloth or
paper towel of any kind. Use only a lint-free (Class 100
cleanroom) cloth, such as those supplied with the printer and
available from Supplies Sales, moistened with HP Scitex
MF50 Flushing Solution.
• DO NOT reprint over any output that has not completely
cured. If ink does get onto the media rollers, clean them with
a minimal amount of isopropyl alcohol and dry them thor-
oughly before printing again.
• DO NOT set heavy objects on the power cord or printer
cable; do not bend the cables or force them into contorted
positions.
• DO NOT place heavy objects anywhere on the printer.
• DO NOT print on the media drive belt. If printing on the belt
does occur, clean as soon as possible to avoid buildup. The
ink will continue to cure after initial curing by the lamps, mak-
ing later removal more difficult. See “Clean the Media Drive
Belt and Encoder” on page 6-4 for instructions.
• DO NOT attempt to lift the printer by its rail or the media
drive motor. Lift with a fork lift at marked lifting points only.
• DO NOT operate the printer without the endcap cabinets
installed. The endcap cabinets are an integral component of
the printer's ESD grounding system. During operation of the
printer, they must be attached to the body of the printer with
the screws provided in order to avoid an ESD event which
could damage printer electronics. The endcap cabinets are
