Mechanical hazard The printer has moving parts that could cause injury. To avoid personal injury, take the following precautions when working close to the printer. ● Keep your clothing and all parts of your body away from the printer's moving parts. ● Avoid wearing necklaces, bracelets, and other hanging objects. ● If your hair is long, try to secure it so that it will not fall into the printer. ● Take care that sleeves or gloves do not get caught in the printer's moving parts. ● Avoid standing close to the fans, which could cause injury and could also affect print quality (by obstructing the air flow). ● Do not touch gears or moving rolls during printing. ● Do not operate the printer with covers bypassed. Light radiation hazard Light radiation is emitted from the illumination of the print zone. This illumination is in compliance with the requirements of the exempt group of IEC 62471:2006, Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems. However, you are recommended not to look directly at the LEDs while they are on. Do not modify the module. Chemical hazard The Safety Data Sheets for the consumables identify the ink ingredients. Adequate ventilation should be provided to ensure that potential airborne exposures to these substances are adequately controlled. You can obtain current Material Safety Data Sheets for the ink systems used in the printer from http://www.hp.com/go/msds. Ventilation and air conditioning As with all equipment installations, to maintain ambient comfort levels, air conditioning or ventilation in the work area should take into account heat produced by the printer. Typically, the printer's power dissipation is 3.7 kW (12.7 kBTU/h). Air conditioning and ventilation should comply with local environmental, health, and safety (EHS) guidelines and regulations. Consult your usual air conditioning or EHS specialist for advice on the appropriate measures for your location. For a more prescriptive approach to adequate ventilation, refer to the ANSI/ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers) 62.1-2007 Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air Quality. As an example, a minimum exhaust rate of 2.5 L/s.m² (0.5 cfm/ ft²) of freshly made-up air for copy and printing rooms is specified. Special ventilation equipment (air filtration) is not required to meet U.S. OSHA requirements for occupational exposure to VOCs from water-based HP Latex Inks. Special ventilation equipment installation is at the discretion of the customer. Customers should consult state and local requirements and regulations. CAUTION: The ventilation and air conditioning units should not blow air directly onto the printer. TIP: Maintaining positive air pressure in the print production room will help prevent dust from entering the room. TIP: Consider providing a minimum of 5 ACH* (air changes per hour) of fresh air ventilation and a minimum room volume of 30 m³. * Recommendation based on a 30 m³ room with only one HP printer. If there are more printers in the room, the ventilation rate should be recalculated accordingly. ENWW Mechanical hazard 3
