Technical Tip

Keep powder containers closed when not in use to keep powder dry. Scoop powder

carefully to minimize airborne powder. Make sure that you carefully vacuum up excess

powder. It only takes a minute, and the tidier the machine is, the less often it will need

maintenance! See Best Practices for Powder Management

. Carefully read the Material

Safety Data Sheet for powder before use.

5.2 Cleaning the Service Station

The Service Station cleans the array of the print heads during printing. The Service Station MUST be

cleaned before every build. This will remove any deposits of powder. Make sure Parking Caps are dry

before beginning a build.

1. Select Unpark on the Service menu in ZPrint, which will move the carriage out of the parking position,

allowing access to the Service Station.
