Health Hazards / Irritant
Uncured VisiJet part material is a sensitizer. Skin or eyeirritation could occur when exposed to the chemical composition ofthe
material.
Any chemical may exert harmful effects if contacts or enters thebody. VisiJet part material is a sensitizer and irritant.
Skin Sensitization
Uncured VisiJet part material is a sensitizer. Skin or eyeirritation could occur when exposed to the chemical composition ofthe
material.
Uncured material is a sensitizer, and can cause allergicreactions if contacts skin without protective gloves. Refer topersonal pro-
tection equipment for more information. To avoid sensitization,do not allow uncured material to contact skin. Consult the MSDSfor
specic information about the sensitization potential.
Inhalation
Under normal operation, inhalation is not an expected route ofentry.
Ingestion
Uncured VisiJet part material is toxic if ingested.
Uncured material is toxic if ingested. Uncured material must notbe present where food and drink are stored, prepared, or con-
sumed and not ingested. After handling materials, wash handswith soap and water before consuming or preparing food.
Handling Finished Parts
Finished (cured) parts can be handled or disposed of the same asstandard household plastic products. VisiJet parts are not
recyclable. VisiJet materials are not intended for and cannot beused for medical implant, or food or drink handlingapplications.
Exposure control
The printer has a variety of built-in engineering controls whichare designed to prevent operator exposure. Do not try to changeor
disable these controls.
Hygienic Practices
Appropriate hygienic practices should be followed, includingwashing with soap and water before meals, breaks, smoking,applying
cosmetics, using toilet facilities, and after work.
Employees should be alerted to the need to clean and rinse offany contacted surface promptly in order to prevent furthercontami-
nation. Ensure a convenient washroom location is provided withaccess to soap, water, and disposable paper towels.

Packaging Inspection
The VisiJet material cartridge are packaged in shipping cartons.Upon receiptof material shipments, inspect cardboard cartonexterior for signs of damage
and leakage. If leakage is observed, DO NOT open carton, andcontact 3D
Systemss Technical Support Hotline. If no leakage is observed,keep the mate-
rial cartridge in their cartons and store until material isused.
Part Building
If uncured material is observed on the part or platform afterbuild, this is an abnormal condition, and is an indication
the printer requires servicing by 3D Systems or a certiedservicing reseller. Assume any liquid or paste-like material
is part material. Do not directly touch uncured part materialwithout protective gloves. Discontinue use of the printer
pending service by a 3D Systems Technical SupportRepresentative.
Flammability and Combustibility
Do not expose materials to heat at or above 230F (110C), ames,sparks, or any source of ignition. (Though the
U.S. Department of Transportation does not consider VisiJetmaterials a ammability hazard, they do classify them
combustible based on ash points.) For more information onVisiJet material ash points and combustibility, see
VisiJet Material Handling and Post Processing Guide.
Personal Protection Equipment
Exposure to uncured part material may occur when removing anddisposing of the waste pan. To
prevent contact, wear chemically resistant protective gloves -nitrile or neoprene gloves are recom-mended. Do not use Latexgloves.
In the event of a leak or spill of uncured part material, wearsafety glasses with side shields to pro-
vide eye protection
Because of the printers built in engineering controls,respiratory protection is not necessary during
normal operation. A NIOSH-approved (or equivalent) dust mask isrecommended when dry sanding
cured material parts.

Regulatory Information
Support material has no known regulatory requirements.
In the U.S., uncured material is subject to special EPA disposalregulations and record-keeping requirements. Uncured
VisiJet material includes any part material cartridge (empty orfull),and waste pan which is partly uncured part material.
For complete disposal regulation details, see Appendix in yourMaterial Handling Guide.
In the U.S., you must keep the following disposal records for veyears after the date of disposal:
The quantity of part material received (new or virgin).
The name and address of the shipping location (the responsibleparty - generally your waste disposal service provider).
The quantity of part material shipped (disposed). For furtherinformation, see your Material Handling Guide.
For assistance, contact 3D Systems Technical Support.
Spilled VisiJet Material
Spills of material are HIGHLY UNLIKELY, and should NOT occur innormal operation of the printer. If a leak occurs, it
is an indication of a serious printer malfunction.
The rst priority is to protect users from inadvertently touchingmaterial. Spills of support material can be cleaned
without use of protective gear, and disposed of as ofce trash.Handling uncured part material requires use of gloves
and other personnel protective equipment to ensure no directcontact with uncured part material. If you dont knowwhich materialit is, assume it to be uncured part material, and handleaccordingly - with the recommended personal
protective equipment.
Promptly remove spilled material, dispose of waste material, andcleanup materials per local regulatory requirements.
Discontinue use of the printer, and contact 3D Systems TechnicalSupport for a service visit to determine and repair
the source of leakage.
Small spills of uncured liquid part material can be cleaned upusing disposable towels, non-reusable rags, or absorb-
ing materials such as sawdust, clay, diatomaceous earth, oractivated charcoal. If spilled material is hot (liquid), wait
until cools and gels before wiping up. After wiping up thespill, wipe surface with denatured or isopropyl alcohol and
clean thoroughly with soap and water.
Consider avoiding placement of the printer over carpeting, orconsider use of barriers to avoid the possibility of carpet
damage if spills were to occur.
Advise service provider involved, of the spilled material, andprovide MSDS and other material information prior to
contact with the material. Advise them of disposal requirementsfor part material and clean-up products if part material
(uncured) is the spilled material. Use of heat above 65C (149F)may prove helpful in removing spilled part material
from carpet.
Tools contaminated with part material should be cleaned prior toreuse. Solvents such as denatured alcohol or Isopro-
pyl Alcohol (IPA), are normally required to clean equipment andtools. Wash with soap and water to remove any traces
of excess part material or solvent. Contact solvent suppliersfor information on proper handling of solvents if used for
clean-up.
Waste Removal
CAUTION: Uncured part material is a sensitizer. Skin or eyeirritation could occur when exposed to the chemi-
cal composition of the material
Wear protective gloves before removing any waste product fromthe printer. Be careful not to spill, drop, or expose others
to these materials - particularly part material or waste pan.Dispose of all waste material appropriately per localregulatory
requirements.
Dispose of waste pan (if it is not reusable) containing bothsupport and uncured part material. Replace the waste pan
every time or reuse pan if the pan is reusable.

NOTE: For optimal results, keep stored cartons closed and sealeduntil material cartridges are ready for use.
Always check material Recertication Date before use. Do
not load material cartridges into printer if cartridge datehas
expired. When printer detects an expired cartridge, itaborts
the build and rejects the cartridge.
Support (white) material must be loaded in the left side of
material drawer. VisiJet part (black) material cartridgesmust
be loaded in the right side of material drawer. Beforeloading
cartridges into printer, inspect the cartridges for signs ofdam-
age or leakage. Do not load a damaged or leaking cartridges.
Dispose of material cartridge according to localregulations.
Storing a Partially Used Material Cartridges
It is important not to lay material cartridges that arepartially
used on their side. Doing so will cause material to seep
through the vent cap and clogging cap. This will cause dam-
age to the material cartridge if used for a later build.
To store a partially used material cartridges, insertcartridgeinto a plastic bag with the vent cap up; place cartridgeinto its
original shipping cartons sleeves and carton. Do not remove
a partially used Support Bottle from the MDM if the MDM is
NOT heating; the material will solidify and cause abreakage.

Network Interface
The ProJet Production Printing System requires an Ethernetnetwork connection to transfer print jobs from workstation(s) tothe
printer.
Network Specications, Physical: The machines internal controllerprovides an integrated, 10/100-megabit-per-second (Mbps)
Ethernet network connection. This connection supports both the10base-T and 100base-TX Ethernet standards. The controllers
connector (an RJ45 socket located on the back panel) is designedfor attaching an shielded twisted pair (UTP) Ethernet cable.
When a facilitys internal network is not 10base-T or 100base-TX,a media converter, such as a Coax to 10base-T will be re-
quired. Consult with your organizations network engineering orMIS staff to provide assistance with these requirements.
The printer works on networks running TCP/IP ONLY each printerMUST have a STATIC IP address on the network. Addition-
ally, each printers subnet mask and default gateway must beknown and available to 3D Systems 3D Systems Field Service
Engineer or authorized reseller at the time of its installation,and should also be known by personnel installing the clientsoftware.
They will need access either to the appropriate subnet mask orthe individual IP address of each printer to complete theworksta-
tion software installation, and to enable access to any printeron the network.

FAMILIARIZATION
3-D printing systems are Multi-Jet-Modeling (MJM) line ofprinters.
The solid imaging printers produce plastic prototype parts from3D
solid Computer-Aided Design (CAD) models and through theprinter
client software. The parts are generated in a rapid prototyping(RP)
environment. The primary features of the 3-D printer are theuser
interface, build chamber, material delivery module, and thewaste
material drawer. The back of the printer houses the powerswitch,internet and the power cord connections.
A Build Chamber
B Support & Parts Material Module
C Waste Drawer
D Operators Touchscreen Panel
E1 USB Connection
E2 Power Switch
E3 Printer Power Outlet
The part material used to build the parts is an ultraviolet (UV)curable material. After a layer of material is deposited in the
build chamber, the part is exposed to a UV ash lamp. The UVenergy is absorbed by the material converting a liquid part
material to a solid polymer. When the build is complete the part(consisting of the two materials) is adhered to the build
platform by means of the support material.
The material delivery module consist of four material cartridgeholders; the two left side holders are for the support material
(white) cartridges. The right side of the module are for twopart material (black) cartridges. Once materials are heated,they
are feed to the printhead. Material waste is generated by twoprocesses; cleaning the printhead array plate and planariza-
tion. The cleaning process involves purging jets and wiping theprinthead array plate. Gravity pulls the waste material from
the Head Maintenance Station (HMS) trough into the wasteumbilical. The combined waste material is then purged. The
printhead cleaning process is invoked automatically prior totest build and parts build.
The three dimensional solid parts built by the printer consistof two materials (support material and part material). The sup-portmaterial is a wax based material providing adhesion to buildplatform, as well as, providing material used to produce
supports required to build the model.
After the build is complete, the platform and thepart is thenremoved from the printer. A second-
ary operation, known as nishing, is required to
provide a nished/cleaned part. Refer to your
ProJet Finishers Guide for more information on
part processing and nishing.

CAUTION: Do not remove a cold material cartridge from theprinter that has started the warming stage. Doing
so could cause damage to the material cartridge and the MDM.Wait the required 15 minutes if it is necessary
to remove cartridges.
CAUTION: When fully melted hot material cartridges are removedfrom the MDM, do not lay the cartridges
on the side; the material will solidify in the vent cap causethe vent to clog. Do not reuse the cartridge in the
MDM without turning the clogged vent cap, 1 1/2 turns. Doing sowill cause the cartridge to collapse and may
cause damage to the MDM.
CAUTION: Please keep bottles clean to avoid any chemical orparticulate contamination of the bottle surface
or bottle cap. Any contamination can be transferred from thebottle to the MDM and cause problems. The
MDM must also be kept clean from chemicals or particulatecontamination.
After powering on the printer, there is a 15 minute warm-upperiod before the material cartridges can be in-
stalled. The user touchscreen will direct you when the printeris warm enough to install material cartridges.
