Quick guide from the manual
This document serves as a mandatory safety and introductory supplement for the HP 126-inch Dual Roll Kit. It is essential to read and understand these guidelines before installing or operating the accessory with your HP Latex printer. The kit is designed to increase productivity by enabling fast loading and reloading of substrates up to 1.6m wide using inflatable spindles.

- HP Latex 3X00 series
- HP Stitch S1000
Always verify compatibility in the printer's user guide before installation.
Safety Precautions
Operators must have appropriate technical training. Key safety measures include:
- Electrical Safety: Internal circuits operate at dangerous voltages. Never attempt to disassemble drying/curing modules or electronic cabinets. Test the Residual Current Circuit Breaker (RCCB) annually.
- Thermal Safety: Drying and curing subsystems reach high temperatures. Allow the printer to cool before maintenance. Do not cover LED arrays or beams.
- Mechanical Safety: Keep clothing, hair, and jewelry away from moving parts. Do not operate with covers open. Use caution when handling heavy substrate rolls; a minimum of two people or mechanical assistance is required.
- Fire Prevention: Use specified voltage, ensure proper ventilation, and do not use flammable aerosols near the printer. Ensure substrate auto-ignition temperature is above 250°C.
Operational Guidelines
In case of emergency, such as smoke, unusual odors, liquid spills, or mechanical damage, shut down the printer using the secondary circuit breakers on the facility PDU and contact a service representative. Ensure the printer is connected only to grounded outlets.
