Overview
Dust may accumulate inside and near the Envision One cDLM printer. Dust can appear on fans and vent holes. High levels of dust accumulation can cause the printer to overheat.
Caution: To protect the internal hardware, the printer automatically shuts down once it reaches the maximum internal temperature of 120 F/49 C.
To clean dust:
- Observe the vent holes on the left and right sides of the printer’s casing.
- Listen to the fan for inconsistency, stress, or obstructions when the printer is turned on.
- To remove dust, turn the printer off, disconnect the power cable, and then wipe the vents and fan with the microfiber cloth.
- Once the printer is cleaned, look down through the safety glass under the material tray to make sure there is no dust or debris on the lens.
