The Leica IP C printer is virtually maintenance-free.

To ensure smooth operation of the instrument over many years we do rec-

ommend the following:

information, please contact your local Leica technical service center.

Only authorized and qualified Leica service personnel may repair

the instrument and access the instrument's internal components.

• However,the message"15" remains on the

display, as the instrument assumes that the

cleaning has not been carried out.

If no button is pressed to acknowledge

the end of the cleaning procedure, the

print head will be closed automati-

cally after a few minutes to prevent it

from drying out.
