Epson SureColor F2000 Maintenance AS NEEDED 5-10 Minutes WHY As-needed maintenance procedures are based on actual usage (garment print volume) and can be required in less than a week for extreme three-shift production, or every few months if usage is intermittent. PROCESS Replace Printhead Maintenance Kit When prompted, replace all three components at the same time. When the end of the wiper component is reached, the printer will stop until replaced. It is highly recommended to have a spare kit on-hand at all times to prevent downtime. Clean Around the Printhead Fabric fibers and ink can build up on the edges of the printhead. If left unattended over a long period of time it can impact the effectiveness of the anti-drying cap (more nozzle loss) and lead to ink droplets and smudges on garments. Use only the cleaning materials supplied with the Printer Maintenance Kit and avoid any contact with the actual surface of the printhead. Clean Carriage Scale The DTG printing process generates ink mist that will coat the surface of carriage scale and ink mist air filter. Wipe the carriage scale and replace the air filter when a Replace Air Filter message is displayed on the control panel or D197 errors begin to occur on a frequent basis. Only clean the carriage scale with the printer's cleaning liquid and the lint-free wipe included in the Air Filter Kit. Empty or Replace the Maintenance Ink Tank The printer's LCD panel will prompt you when to replace and it's a good idea to do a visual check periodically. Dispose of the maintenance ink according to your local laws and regulations.

AS NEEDED
As-needed maintenance procedures are based on actual usage (garment print volume)
and can be required in less than a week for extreme three-shift production, or every
few months if usage is intermittent.
PROCESS
Replace Printhead Maintenance Kit
When prompted, replace all three components at the same time. When the end
of the wiper component is reached, the printer will stop until replaced. It is highly
recommended to have a spare kit on-hand at all times to prevent downtime.
Clean Around the Printhead
Fabric fibers and ink can build up on the edges of the printhead. If left unattended over
a long period of time it can impact the effectiveness of the anti-drying cap (more nozzle
loss) and lead to ink droplets and smudges on garments. Use only the cleaning
materials supplied with the Printer Maintenance Kit and avoid any contact with the
actual surface of the printhead.
Clean Carriage Scale
The DTG printing process generates ink mist that will coat the surface of carriage scale
and ink mist air filter. Wipe the carriage scale and replace the air filter when a Replace
Air Filter message is displayed on the control panel or D197 errors begin to occur on a
frequent basis. Only clean the carriage scale with the printer’s cleaning liquid and the
lint-free wipe included in the Air Filter Kit.
Empty or Replace the Maintenance Ink Tank
The printer’s LCD panel will prompt you when to replace and it’s a good idea to do a
visual check periodically. Dispose of the maintenance ink according to your local laws
and regulations.
