WARNING
Be sure to setup the appropriate air-moving system in case of using the device in a
closed room or a room with bad ventilation.
Be sure to use the device with the power supply specifications indicated.
To avoid fires or electrical shocks, the two power cables must be plugged to separate
receptacles that are grounded separately.
Set voltage selectors according to the power voltage to be used.
110V : JV3 100-120V
220V : JV3 200-240V
Take care not to damage, break or work on the power cable.
If a heavy matter is placed on the power cable, heated or drawn, the power cable can
break to cause fire or electric shocks.
The ink used for this device contains organic solvent. Since the ink is flammable,
never use fire when using the device.
Avoid damp environments when putting the device into service. Do not splash water
onto the device.
High-humidity or water will give rise to fire, electric shocks or breakdown of the device.
If the device is used under an abnormal condition where the device produces smoke or
unpleasant smell, fire or electric shocks can result. Be sure to turn off the power

Setting the heater voltage
Set the heater voltage according to the supply voltage to the plotter.
For the voltage setting, use the voltage selectors under the left back of the cover.
At shipping from the factory, the voltage is set to 220 V for safety.
Connecting the plotter to a 220V power supply with the voltage selector set
to 110V may damage to it.
Connecting the plotter to a 100-120V power supply with the voltage selector set
to 220V prevents the heater from heating up to the specified temperature.

data that has not yet been output in the device.
Also be sure that the head rests at the capping station.
If the power is turned off while the device is engaged in plotting, the head
may fail to be retracted in the capping station. If the head is left without
capped for an extended period of time, the nozzle will be clogged with dust.
If the power to the device is turned off without the head capped, return on
the power to the device.
Do not turn OFF the main power switch. The nozzle blockage prevention
function is disabled.
