Cautions when handling ink cartridges
• Use the recommended ink cartridge by Mimaki.
• Do not touch the ink directly. When ink sticks on skins, wash it with soapy water immediately
then rinse it off with water fully. If you get ink in your eyes, immediately wash your eyes with a
lot of clean running water for at least 15 minutes. In doing so, also wash the eyes to rinse ink
away completely. Then, consult a doctor as soon as possible.
• Store ink cartridge in a dark and cold place.
• If the ink cartridge is moved from a cold place to a warm place, leave it in a place of using this
machine for more than three hours before using it.
• Be sure to thoroughly consume the ink in the ink cartridge, once it is opened, within six
months. If an extended period of time has passed after opening the cartridge, drawing quality
would be poor.
• Store ink cartridges in a place that is out of the reach of children.
• When discarding unused ink cartridges, entrust them to an industrial waste disposal
contractor, clarifying their contents.
• Some component (photoinitiator) of the ink is toxic against aquatic organisms. Avoid leakage
of it to natural water system or domestic waste water.
• Do not use ink cartridges expired the date noted on them.
• Before using an ink cartridge, be sure to read the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).
• Do not shake the ink cartridge violently. Shaking or turning it toughly can cause leakage of
ink.
• Never disassemble the ink cartridge.
• Never refill the ink cartridge with ink. Refilling the ink cartridge can cause a trouble.
Remember that Mimaki assumes no responsibility for any damage caused by the use of the
ink cartridge replenished with ink.
• Do not touch or stain the contacts of the ink cartridge. This may cause damages on printed
circuit boards.
• Do not disassemble the ink cartridges.
