Group 3 Accident prevention Page 26
3. Accident prevention
The following presentation shows the measures in the event of an accident with ink and
solvent with the danger marking
! slightly ignitable
! irritates the eyes and the respiratory organs.
3.1 Storage and handling (normal use)
GENERAL These products must only used at points that are free from
open flames and other ignition sources. Do not use pressure for
emptying – the container is not a pressure vessel. Good
household practice and regular, safe removal of the waste
materials restrict the danger of self-ignition and other risks of
fire to a minimum. The product can charge statically. When
pouring from one container to another use a mass lead. The
workers must wear anti-static shoes and clothing and the floors
must be conductive.
STORAGE Observe the marking information. Store at 5 to 25°C in a

warm, well ventilated location at a safe distance from heat and
ignition sources and direct sunlight.
Do not smoke! Do not grant access to unauthorised persons.

Open containers must be properly closed and stored upright in
order to avoid leakage.
Smoking, eating and drinking must be forbidden in the storage

and working areas. Always keep in containers from the same
material as the delivery containers.
HANDLING The development of combustible or explosive vapour

concentrations must be prevented and vapour concentrations
avoided that are above the threshold values of the employers
liability insurance association. Keep containers closed tightly.
Keep sources of heat and sparks as well as open flames well

away.
Use only spark-free tools. Electrical devices must be protected

in accordance with the corresponding standard.
Avoid contact with the skin and eyes. Do not inhale vapours
and spray mist.

3.2 First aid measures
EYES Contact lenses must be removed. Rinse thoroughly with pure,

fresh water for at least 10 minutes, keep eyelids spread and
call a doctor.
SKIN Remove contaminated clothes. Wash skin thoroughly with soap

and water or with a branded skin cleansing agent. DO NOT use
solvents or thinners.
INHALING Take patient into the fresh air and keep warm and calm. In the
event of irregular breathing or of breath being missed
resuscitate artificially. Do not give anything orally, place
unconscious patients on their side and call a doctor.
MISCELLANEOUS In case of doubt or with persistent symptoms call a doctor.

Never give anything orally to unconscious patients.
3.3 Fire fighting measures
EXTINGUISHING Recommended: Alcohol-resistant foam, spray water/mist, CO2

AGENTS or powder
DO NOT use water jets. Cool closed containers exposed to the

fire with spray water.
RISK OF FIRE AND As the product contains combustible organic constituents, a

EXPLOSION thick, black smoke develops in the event of fire that contains
dangerous combustion products. Decomposition products can
constitute a danger to health. Extinguishing waste water must
not enter the waste water channels or waters.
PROTECTIVE If necessary suitable, independent breathing apparatus is

MEASURES required.

3.4 Measures in the event of accidental release (spillage)
PRECAUTIONARY Switch off sources of ignition and ventilate room. Keep

MEASURES personnel that is not absolutely necessary away. Do not inhale
any vapour. Observe the protective measures listed.
ENVIRONMENTAL DO NOT allow to enter waste water channels or waters.

PROTECTION
MEASURES Should the product enter waste water channels or the drainage
system the local water supply authority must be informed
immediately. In the event of contamination of streams, rivers or
lakes inform the national water authorities. Vapour is heavier
than air and can spread out on the ground. In combination with
air it can form an explosive mixture.
RESTORATION Restrict and suck up spilled substances with a non-combustible
absorbent material (e.g. sand, earth, vermiculite, infusorial
earth) and collect in a suitable container for removal. Preferably
clean areas with spilled substances with a detergent. Avoid
solvents.

Group 5 Transport/start up Page 33
5. Transport/Start up (Putting into service)
5.1 Transport, storage, shipping
In order to avoid damage during transport the following instructions must be observed.
The LEIBINGER-JET 2 must only be transported in a standing position. It is packed in a

cardboard box with special polystyrene inserts for safe dispatch during delivery.
Transport of the device must only be made in this packing in order to avoid damage.
Note! Storage temperatures below +5°C and above +50°C as well as storage at
outside are not admissible and can lead to damage!
5.2 Mounting

explosion!
heater, etc.
Check device for damage! When determining a suitable place of setting up, the
necessary additional space requirement for the movement room of the operating and
service personnel must be taken into consideration. Solvents are processed in the
device, adequate room ventilation must be ensured!
Figure 4 Movable underframe

for LEIBINGER-JET 2:
54-002 601 KA
weldment seam
For this it is expedient to place the device on a device support.

The device has four fastening possibilities for secure setting up and should be screw
connected at the place of setting up.
Figure 5
120 mm
M6 (4x) 377 mm
A place of setting up with sufficient load bearing capacity and stability

must be chosen. Prior to assembly the place of setting up must be
cleaned of dirt and contamination (residue of lubricants etc.) .
5.3 Installation
For the adaptation to a production line various work must be carried out prior to
commissioning and operating parameters set.
5.3.1 Mains connection
Mains connection!
The device has no mains switch and must only be connected to a

plug socket in the direct vicinity of the place of setting up!
The LEIBINGER- JET 2 must be connected to alternating current 115 - 230 V AC,
47 – 60 Hz with a corresponding plug. The plug socket should be equipped with a
clear marking (e.g.: LEIBINGER-JET 2).

5.3.2 Data interface X2
The operation of the LEIBINGER-JET 2 is normally done via the LCD touch display.
The RS 232 input on the rear side of the device (9-pole plug, female, interface X2)
can be used as an external data interface for connection to a PC, notebook or host.
The standard baud rate is 38400 Baud.
For older software versions the baud rate can be reduced to 9600 baud with the
help of a special bridge plug. Further more a special plug to increase the
transmission rate to 115200 is obtainable on request.
The interface enables the downloading/running of software, of jobs and of graphic

symbols. A special connection cable and the Leibinger LJ-FLASH program is
required to use this function.
Further more this interface can be used via a PC for a comfortable programming of
one or more Leibinger-Jet 2. For this you would need additionally the Leibinger-
software Win Jet.
When using a personal computer with RS 232 C interface a

maximum connection cable length of 10 metres should not be
exceeded, with greater transmission distances the use of an RS
422 connection is recommended.
5.3.2.1 Transmission protocol for operating system LJOS
The programming device that is connected to the LEIBINGER-JET 2 must work with
the following transmission protocol:
! Asynchronous Mode ! 1 stop bit
! 8 bit/character ! Parity = no parity, no parity calculation
Figure 6

5.3.2.2 Pin assignment plan
The RS 232 C / V24 interface has the following connections on the 9-pole SUB-D
plug:
! PIN 2 RXD receive Data
! PIN 3 TXD transmit Data
! PIN 5 GND ground, mass
! PIN 7 RTS
! PIN 8 CTS
! PIN 9 +5 VDC supply voltage for programming device (max. 0.5 A)
When entering the data the respective description must be observed. Leibinger
offers a correspondingly protected cable for the connection.

5.3.3 Print Go interface X5 (print triggering)
For the creation of the print triggering (print go signal) a 5-pole plug socket X5 is
assembled on the rear side of the device on which an external print go signal can be
fed in.
The signal can be created with a bounce free and potential free contact (inner
resistance ≤ 1 kΩ) or with electronic PNP/NPN proximity switches (observe Pin
assignment in the connection plug).
A supply voltage of 24 V DC, 100 mA for sensors can also be taken from the plug
socket (X5) on the rear side of the device.
The print go signal is created through a signal jump. A shaft encoder must be used
in addition for the synchronisation of the print speed with the product speed (with
variable speed).
Figure 8 Plug X5 for product sensor at the

backside of the electronics cabinet.
Example: Photo cell with connection cable and plug
5.3.4 Shaft encoder
5.3.4.1 Description and pin assignment
With a variable product speed a shaft encoder must be used for the synchronisation
of the print speed with the product speed or for the regulation of the constant type
width. Shaft encoders with 5 volt logic and line drivers as per EIA 485 A or EIA 422
A can be used. The transmission ratio between product and shaft encoder speed
should be selected in such a manner that a maximum output frequency of 150 kHz
is not exceeded.
Shaft encoders with 1000, 2500, 5000 and 10000 impulses/revolution are
avaiable.

Leibinger ordering number: see group replacement parts
With more difficult operating conditions (dust or humidity) shaft encoders with IP 66
form of protection should be used.

Example: Shaft encoder with connection cable and plug
Should alternative shaft encoders be used, the minimum impulse issued should be 3
impulses /mm in order to achieve a sufficient resolution!
5.3.4.2 Mechanic installation
With mechanic installation of the shaft encoders in all cases

attention must be paid to ensuring that the encoder is protected
from axial and radial burdening during assembly and in continuous
operation. For this a folding bellows or synthetic material coupling
is used.
If the circumstances allow the shaft encoder can also be adapted to a production
line with a frictional wheel.
Attention – risk of injury!
Your fingers could get caught between the frictional wheel and the
production line. Keep your hands outside the danger area.
Figure 10
Leibinger ordering number: see group replacement parts

5.3.5 Print head
The print head must be assembled to the product to be inscribed in such a manner
that the opening in the head cover is vertical to the direction of movement of the
product. It can be installed horizontally, vertically, from above or from below.
In the event of installation from below the penetrating of dirt into the print head
must however be prevented (head ventilation – option/article no.: 54-002 322 SA).
The print head assembly unit should be designed in such a manner that rapid
separation of the print head from the machine is possible for cleaning purposes.
Two screw threads M4 x 7.00 deep are available for secure fastening!
Figure 11
3
1 – Axis of the production line

2 – Print head
3 – Fastening screw thread
4 – Head umbilical
The print head must be secured vibration free. The head umbilical
of the print head must not go statically below a radius of R35 and
dynamically below a radius of R90!
The distance of the print head to the product depends on the print height. The
lower the required print height the smaller the distance of the print head to the
product must be (type quality better with lesser interval). Recommended is a
distance of ≈ 8 mm!
Installation of the print head
The operating staff must not be exposed to danger due to the

installation of the device in a production plant. Moving products
under the print head may cause risk of crushing/cutting. The
instructions of the machines directive must be strictly adhered to.

5.4 Start up (Putting into service)

Group 6 Operation – Construction/Structure Page 44
6. Operation
6.1 Construction/Structure
The LEIBINGER-JET 2 high performance printer is manufactured from a solid high grade
steelcabinet. It consists of the following main components.
Figure 12
1 – Electronics cabinet
2 – LCD touch display
3 – Hydraulics cabinet
4 – Refill unit
5 – Print head with

head umbilical
The fundamental electronic components of the LEIBINGER- JET 2 such as the mains
part, the LCD touch display and the controller board are accommodated in the
electronics cabinet.
The LCD touch display serves the display of the system conditions of the LEIBINGER-
JET 2 and the operation of the device.
All components that are necessary for the conveying and preparation of the ink are
accommodated in the hydraulics cabinet.
The refill unit serves the supply of the consumables. It contains two separate storage
containers for ink and solvent.
The print head contains all mechanical, electronical and hydraulic components that are
necessary for the creation of an inscription. It is connected to the hydraulics cabinet via
a flexible tube. Screw threads for secure fastening are integrated into the cabinet of the
print head.

Group 6 Operation – functional principle Page 45
6.2 Functional principle
6.2.1 Method of working
The Leibinger-Jet 2 works in accordance with the continuous ink jet process. In this
a constant ink jet is emitted from a jet nozzle which is broken down into a series of
equal size drops under the influence of mechanical oscillations.
If required these drops are individually charged up electrostatically and deflected

into a constant electrical field depending on the charge. As a result not just one
point but rather a line of points can be applied contact-free with one jet. If the
product used is moved vertically to the drop deflection two-dimensional patterns
(characters) can be created.
The drops that are not required for a programmed inscription are not charged and
flow uninfluenced through the electrical deflection field into a gutter. In the gutter
the drops are sucked up by a suction pump and fed back into the ink tank.
Depending on the application alphanumeric data can be entered with the LCD touch
display.
Data for font and texts are stored in the device (even in the event
of power failure). If required it can be called up, altered or deleted
quickly and easily.
6.2.2 Drop creation
During the drop creation the ink is pressed through a jet nozzle under pressure and
at the same time modulated in such a way by highly frequent sinus oscillations that
are imposed on the drop that it attaches itself to the nodal points of the oscillations
and breaks down into individual drops at a specific distance lA (please see the
following figure “Creation of a character”) from the jet. The oscillations are created with
an oscillatory system that is excited by a Piezo oscillator.
6.2.3 Drop charging
In order to be able to charge the drops it is necessary for the ink to have electrical
conductivity. This is possible through the use of specific salts that dissociate in the
solvent used. The drop brake-off point of the modulated jet is automatically set in
such a manner that this happens inside the charging electrode.

Group 6 Operation – Functional principle Page 46
The drops can now be charged up by creation of voltage between jet and charging
electrode, because they are given a negative charge through the charge shift
resulting in the charge electrode gap. A specific charge voltage is clearly allocated
for each drop charge.
6.2.4 Drop deflection
After the drops have left the charging electrode they fly through an electrical field.
Here, those droplets that were previously charged in the charging electrode are
deflected. The drops that have not been charged fly straight ahead into the gutter.
Here they are sucked up and fed back to the circular flow of ink. The charged drops
are only deflected in one direction, the other direction is performed by the product
to be inscribed.
6.2.5 Creation of a character
Each character is defined by a two-dimensional matrix, e.g. 7 x 5. An ink drop can

be assigned to every point of intersection. The character is formed by deflecting the
ink drops in a vertical direction and by moving the product which is to be imprinted
horizontally. The ink drops which are not to be positioned are not given electrostatic
charges in the charging electrode, and pass through the electrical field without
being deflected and on into the gutter tube. The values needed for generating the
charge voltages for each individual character are stored in memory devices
(FPROMS) on the controller board.

(54-002 002 S)

6.5.4.3 Viscosity control

Risk of injury!
For process-safe functioning of the LEIBINGER-JET 2 it is necessary to keep the

viscosity of the ink constant. During operation the ink gives off solvent into the
ambient air. The dosing of ink or solvent is performed via the refill valve. The
condition of the viscosity is recorded through a drop ball viscometer.
If the viscosity has increased solvent is conveyed from the storage container into
the circular flow of ink via the valve control during the next necessary refilling
procedure.

6.5.4.4 Leak detection
An additional safety measure in the LEIBINGER-JET 2 is the leak detection. To

detect a leak in the hydraulic part i.e. if ink or solvent on the basis of slightly
combustible solvents escape, the operation of the device is aborted and an acoustic
alarm triggered.

6.5.5 Print head

Remove mains plug!


Risk of injury!
Ink escapes from the head aperture. Spraying of ink into the eyes
can cause blindness. Eye protection is necessary!
The Print head contains all mechanical, electronic and hydraulic components that
are necessary for the creation of an inscription. It is connected to the hydraulics
housing via a flexible tube.

6.5.5.3 Nozzle plate
The jet is made up of a precious stone with the actual jet bore. The precious stone
is held in a steel plate in order to enable simple replacement and adjustment of the
ink jet. The diameter of the bore is between 40-70 micrometers depending on the
design of the jet.
An O-ring is secured to the nozzle plate with a clamping plate and two slotted
screws to seal the gutter when the jet is closed. The jet is pressed against the drop
production unit with a fixing screw. This produces a liquid-tight and yet movable
connection (see illustration drop production unit with oscillator).
6.5.5.4 Nozzle seal with gutter
The nozzle seal prevents the drying of the ink in the jet, the gutter (catcher pipe)
and the suction pump during operational standstill.
This is achieved with an electrical spindle drive which moves the gutter in the
direction of the jet from the writing position to the jet and in the reverse direction
when switching on. The nozzle seal is a unit which can be completely replaced in
case of need.

The basic setting, for the entry of the
values in mm, is carried out in the text
programming level <E14> with the PG signal (beginning)
touch field <Pulses per mm>.
The touch field <print repeat> (103) enables the entry of the number of print-outs,
at the same time the current value is also displayed in the field. Values between 0-
255 are admissible.
Example: 000 = single print-out 255 = endless repetition

001 = double print-out

7.5.2 Printgo distance

between 0 – 99999.9 are admissible.
The entry is done in mm.
[E4]
The greater the value entered the greater printgo distance
is the gap between the individual print-
outs. text text
7.5.3 Droplet flight time
Figure 74
The touch field <drop flight-time> (105)

causes an alteration to the droplet
loading.
Major speed alterations require the

droplet flight time compensation for the
prevention of text item variances. A
precondition is the setting of a greater [E4]
print delay because at higher speeds the 105
droplet loading must start earlier.

7.5.4 Print Go and Print Go Gate
Figure 75
The touch field <PrintGo> (106) toggles
between “intern” and “sensor” to select
the source of the print go signal.
With the “Sensor” setting the print go 107

signal will be generated through an
106
external sensor. With the “Internal”
setting the connected sensor is not
queried (the print go signal will be [E4]
generated by the printer).
With the touch field <PG-gate> (107) a further print start condition can be
activated, at the same time the current status “ON” or “OFF” is shown in the field
in addition. With the setting “ON” activated the print procedure is only carried out
for as long as the queried sensor is under voltage.
Example: Endless print-out of pipes with interrupts between the end of the previos
pipe and the beginning of the next pipe.

7.5.5 Meter go function
Figure 76
With the touch field <Meter-Go> (108)

the Leibinger-Jet 2 function will be
activated or deactivated. At the same
time the current status „ON“ or „OFF“ is
displayed.
108
[E4]
Function:
The function enables to continue the running production for the printing of
continuous goods during a printing stop and enables to continue the print with the
correct status after the stop.
For this the method steps of the product (entering encoder signals) are displayed in
the background. An internal counter in the background calculates therefore the
current counter status of the length marking.
If a new printing start signal is generated after the print stop by pressing the touch
field <printstart>, you will get automatically the correct counter status of the
length marking.
Typical applications:
! Length marking of continuous cables

! Length marking of continuous tubes.
Note! Already by activating the function <meters go> entering

encoder signals (method steps) will be displayed in the background.
To guarantee the correct start value for the first „printing start“
with the function it is absolutely necessary that all counters are
reset accordingly.
Pay attention! A correct printing can be only guaranteed if the

printer is not switched off during a printing stop/trouble shooting!

! Choose the function <With Encoder> (110) in the menu level <E8>.
! Activate the function <meters go ON> (111) in the menu level <E4>. The set
up <PrintGo> (102) changes automatically to the set up „sensor“ and should
be not changed anymore!
! Press the touch field <printgo-distance> (113) to enter the certain value
(distance from printing start to printing start) in mm.
! With the <ESCAPE>-button you can leave the menu and you can go back to
the menu level <E1>.
! With the touch field <take over > (114) in the menu level <E1> the set up
will be taken over to the production.
Observation:
The touch field <take over > (114) will be only displayed during open nozzle!
Note! To guarantee the correct start value for the first „printing
start“ with the function it is absolutely necessary that all counters
are reset accordingly.

7.6.2 Replacements and text sources
Figure 81
The touch field <ex. text> (130) 130

controls the text source. At the same
time the current status “inactive” or
“active” is displayed in the field.
With the active setting the text is

131
imported from a connected external data
source. If the status inactive has been [E6]
selected external sources will be ignored.
The touch field <replacements set-up>

(131) activates the selection level
<E13>.
The selection menu <E13> enables the
replacement of the date values entered
by letters or names so as to enable a
company-specific illustration or coding of
the information. The alterations carried
out are saved after the entry. [E13]
7.6.2.1 Printing with the function “ex. text”
By the usage of the function “external text” an easy possibility is provided to send
variable data via the serial interface RS232 without any additional software- or
programming works.
Function principle:
Variable data of a fixed text length (string length/field length) can be sent via the
RS232 which are placed to the predefined wildcards within the text. Within a text
you can define several variable fields of wildcards; ore the wildcards can stand
alone also (without additional text).
The maximum length of all wildcards is 64 characters; that means for each print-out
(PrintGo-signal) you can send and print maximum 64 variable data bytes.
For every print-out (PrintGo-signal) always the constant amount of characters have
to be transferred which have been also defined as the amount of wildcards (e.g. 4
wildcards are defined ! always necessary to send 4 data bytes per print-out).
The characters can include letters and numbers, but should not include control
characters as “carriage return” or “line feed”.

Inside the printer there is a input buffer of totally 256 characters available.
For every “PrintGo” the printer will check, if the amount of characters have been
entered on the input-buffer, which are given by the amount of the wildcard
characters. If enough characters have been received, they will be taken over to the
data-buffer and will be printed.
If not enough characters have been received, the characters are printed which are
taken over to the data-buffer at last (the previous text will be printed again).
Example for text input:
Fix text Variable text/data field Fix text

Content XXXX pieces
The input of the fix text (the non-variable part of the text) can be done as usual.
After the input of the first text part, the definition of the wildcards for the variable
data is carried out:
By touching either several touching of the <SHIFT> button, further menus to enter
small letters, special characters and additional parameters are called-up.
In the menu “Additions” <E60> and with the button <ExText> you can set the
required wildcards to implement the variable external data via the interface
(wildcards can be any alphanumeric characters; in the shown example the “x” has
been used as wildcards).
Print-out of our example:

After pressing the button <Printstart> the first four data bytes have to be sent via
the RS232 interface => e.g. “1000”
After the first “PrintGo”-signal the following text will be printed out:
Content 1000 pieces
Now the second data record has to be transferred via the interface (this
transmission can already happen during the first print-out) => e.g. “2345”
After the next “PrintGo”-signal the following text will be printed out:
Content 2345 pieces

7.6.3 Reset counters

The “counter 1” can also be reseted by an external 24V-signal ona pin 15/X4
(please see chapter 12.2 "Interface layout plan")

7.6.4 Counter settings
Figure 83
With the two touch fields <counter 1

set-up> (134) and <counter 2 set-up>
(135) the basic settings of the respective 134
counters are defined. 135
The setting level <E42> is activated.
[E6]
Figure 84 136
The touch field <start value> (136) 140

enables the entry of the starting value. 141
Following reaching of the limit value the
137
counter is reset to the starting value.
138
139
[E42]
With the touch field <end value> (137) the limit value can be defined. The starting
value can be increased to any limit value desired.
The touch field <increment> (138) defines the increase between the individual
print issues. The increase of the counter can be selected between 1-9.
The touch field <repeat count> (139) determines the number of prints to be
repeated. If no repetition is desired “0” must be entered. The counter can print up
to 9999 repetitions.
At the same time the values are displayed in addition in the above mentioned fields.
The touch field <forward/backward> (140) controls the direction of the counting
process i.e. whether the counter is incremented (+) or decremented (-).
The touch field <reset> (141) controls the form of the reset. At the same time
the activated status „normal“ or „Prod. C.“ is displayed in the field. If the function
„Prod. C.“ (with product counter) is activated the counter will be reset when the
product counter is reset.

7.6.5 Counter programming
To programm a counter you have to proceed as following:
(E.g.: A counter with 4 digits should be defined)

! Press the touch field < new text> in the menu level <E3>.
! The “font menu” <E9> is called up.
! After choosing the font the line menu <E15> either the keyboard field <E50>
will be displayed if necessary.
! By the touch field <Shift> scroll as long as the menu level <E60> appears.
! Press the touch field <Counter> (142). The Leibinger-Jet 2 changes to the
counter definition mode. To indicate that the counter definition mode is active,
the display background will be colored black.
! Return with the <Shift>-button (143) to the keyboard field <E50>.
! Input wildcard for the counter. The amount of the wildcards is determined by
the number of digits of the counter. The wildcards are already the so-called
“start value” of the counter (so e.g. 0005).
! Return with the <Shift>-button (143) to the menu level <E60> again and
confirm the input by pressing the touch field <counter> (144) again.
! Escape the menu with the <Shift>-button (143) and you can finish the process
in the next possible menu level by pressing the touch field <ESCAPE>.
! With the touch field <take over> (145) in the menu level <E1> the counter
will be taken over into the production.
! A safety inquiry with which counter you should go on will be faded-in.
Observation:
The touch field <take over > will be only displayed during open nozzle!
The parameters of the counter can be selected in the menu level <E6>.
The value of the enterd wildcards determines also the “start value” of the counter.
For the first start of the production it will be only once from the “start value”
(wildcard) to the “initial value”. Afterwards it will be only counted recurrently from
the “initial value” to the “end value”.

Example:
Start value 00 initial value (parameter) 05 end value (parameter)10

Print: 00;01;02;03;04;05;06;07;08;09;10;05;06;07;08;09;10;05;06.....
If the counter should start counting from the beginning from the initial value (e.g.
05) the wildcard has to correspond with the initial value (wildcard value = 05).

7.6.6 Mode normal and reflected
Figure 86
The touch field <Mode> (146) controls 146

the printing direction, that means if the
text should be printed from forward to
behind or from behind to forward.
At the same time the current status

„normal“ or „reflected “ is displayed.
[E6]
The mode „reflected“ is used if the back movement of the print head or of the
product is used during the printing process.
Example:
Note! If the button <mode reflected> is activated, it is cogent

necessary to enter also a <print go delay> (see chapter 7.5.1
(print dely and print repetition)). The necessary length of the print
go delay is depended of the printing speed and has to be find out
by some trials.
Recommended is a default value of 5 mm!

[E8]
I.e. when the print head is opened, the oscillator voltage and the phase set, the ink
jet printer is ready for printing and the LEIBINGER-JET 2 begins the print procedure
independently upon receipt of a print start signal.
The touch field <time/date set-up>(153) enables the import of date and time. The
“entry level” <E40> is called up.
The entry of the current settings of date,

weekday and time can be made.
Return <ret>(154)=take over entry

154
Backspace <bs>(155)=deletes the last

Observation: The postponement of the date setting is done in hourly steps. The
maximum possible postponement is 23 hours.

7.7.2 Monitoring functions (Control functions)
7.7.2.1 Printgo- and strokego monitoring
Monitoring functions are particularly necessary with high printing speeds.
Examples: A Print Go is triggered and is printed. The next Print Go is triggered.

However if the writing procedure has not yet been ended an error
notification will be made on the display:
„error!!, a printgo occured while a print, was in progress. Prints will be

lost. Check also PG-distance.“
If the print speed is too high with the parameters set, stroke errors can
occur. The following error notification appears on the display:
„error!!, a strokego occured while a stroke, was in progress so strokes

will be lost.“
The speed must be reduced or device parameters altered!

The touch field <encoder set-up> (160)
controls the basic settings of the
encoder. The “selection level”<E14> is
opened.
[E8]
With the touch field <lock backward>

(161) the return barring is activated or
deactivated. 162
163
If the return barring is switched on the 161
strokes that are created during any
164
backwards movement are taken into
consideration in ensuing forwards
movement to control the correct [E14]
insertion of the text print-out.
With the touch field <encoder directi.> (162) a choice can be made between
direction of rotation to the left or to the right. Encoder signals are only evaluated
with a correctly set direction of rotation.
The touch field <width> (163) controls the print width of the print-out. The modes
“normal” and “extra” are available for selection. In the “extra” mode the print width
is doubly wide. Only possible with the “without encoder” setting.
Observation: In the “normal width” mode the device works at a rapid stroke rate,
with “extra width” (extra wide) at a lower stroke rate.

With the touch field <Pulses per mm> (164) the pulses/revolution indicated on the
encoder can be multiplied by the factor 4 and following the multiplication they can
be divided by the distance determined for one revolution.
7.7.5 Job change
Figure 92
By switching over to the touch field 170

<JobChan> (170) from “internal” to
“external” the possibility is given of
changing between 128 jobs during
production by means of an external
signal. If the “internal” mode is activated
external signals for a job change are
ignored. [E8]
Observation: With activated external job change, jobs can only be edited with a
closed noozle. To change a job by external signals the head must be
open. A corresponding signal from the SPC is required.
At the same time the current status “internal” or “external” is displayed in the field.
7.7.5.1 Printing with the function “external job selection”
For the usage of the function “external job selection” the printer has to be prepared
as follows:
1.) Delete all jobs:

Please push the following order of buttons: ! “main menu” ! “job
management” ! “delete jobs” ! “all jobs” ! ”YES”
2.) Create 128 Default-jobs:

Please push the following order of buttons: ! “main menu” ! “function
parameter” ! “replacements” ! “replace figures” ! “ESC” ! “Job
management” ! “Factory setting & default job”.
After these steps 128 default-jobs have been created automatically (see under
“main menu” ! “job management” ! “list all jobs”).
The jobs are numbered all the way through with names from “001” up to “128”
and the function “external job change” is activated in the single jobs.
(This is necessary that no undefined job can be selected by switching over the
inputs and that in every job the function “external job change” is already
activated).

The jobs can be adjusted and overwritten accordingly (= edit and save under the
same name again). They should be saved under a number between “001” and
“128”.
Attention!
! If a job is deleted, all other jobs are shifted by one digit ( if e.g.
job 031 is deleted, job 032 would be then on position 031
afterwards!!!). An afterwards insert of a new job on this digit
where job 31 has been is unfortunately not possible anymore;
that means that the arrangement of the job has been always
shifted by the amount of the deleted job.
! As the inputs of the jobselect-lines have a very high priority, the
head has to be always closed during editing of the job.
Otherwise it can happen that the change of a job will be saved
in a wrong job (not in the requested job, but in a job which is
called by the select inputs right now). If the device is operated
by an external software an additional control character can
ignore the select lines (please see “interface description of the
LJ2”). Due to this the head has not to be closed to edit or save
a job as usual.

Alterations to the parameters already pre-set can lead to serious

functional disturbances!

The <Intervall time> mode (202) enables the entry of start and limit times at
which the LEIBINGER-JET 2 switches itself on or off automatically for circulation of
the ink (e.g.: at 10.25 hours the device switches on / at 10.40 hours the device
switches off).
This function prevents the drying of the ink and the jets becoming stuck up during
operation interruptions.
At the same time the set values are displayed in all above mentioned fields.

9.1.1.1 General information

equipment!
Risk of injury!
Risk of injury!
Upon contact the contents causes skin irritation. Protective

equipment is necessary!
The storage containers for ink and solvent are installed beneath the cover flap of the
refill unit (see illustration below).
The containers are always without pressure and can be opened in any condition of
the device including during production. Following refilling the containers must be
closed again carefully.
Important! The containers are monitored by filling level sensors. In

the event of the minimum filling level being under-achieved an
optical and acoustic request to refill is made. If no acknowledge-
ment of the refill alarm is made within 10 minutes, the LEIBINGER-
JET 2 will stop the production and close the jet and the device will
switch off.

Figure 105
Instruction label see inside of the housing cover
Storage containers (view with cover folded back)

1 – Storage container “Ink”
2 – Storage container “Solvent”
The storage containers must not be overfilled!

Only fill up to max. 2/3!
Following filling the containers must again be closed carefully.
For 8 hour operation the storage containers should be at least half filled as with
most applications the ink consumption is low (1 litre enables the printing of up to
100 million characters depending on the matrix and the diameter of the jet).
Depending on the ink, ambient temperature and humidity the consumption of

LEIBINGER solvent can be between 20-100 ml/8 hours. With higher temperatures in
shift operation LEIBINGER solvent should therefore be checked or refilled daily.
At this point we wish to make explicit reference to the fact that it

is only when using solvent and ink from Paul Leibinger GmbH & Co.
KG that the optimum operating characteristics can be achieved. In
the event of use of other inks and solvents all guarantee
entitlements shall cease to apply.

9.1.1.2 TAG reader and TAG identifier
Inks and solvent made by Paul Leibinger GmbH & Co. KG are identified by TAGs.
The TAG is located below the label of each re-fill bottle (see fig. below).
The LEIBINGER-JET 2 is equipped with a TAG reader to read the TAG codes.

criterions. This consequences should be noted!
! If the activation should be carried out the used bottle should be put in front of
the TAG-reader.
! The certain bottle will be activated subsequently and the TAG will be
devaluated. The succesful activation is indicated by two short acoustic signals
and the certain display message.

2. Devaluated refill bottle:
! If ink or solvent has been filled in without activating the bottle the following
message appears on the LCD-Touch display. (The following displayed message
refers to a bottle with ink. For a bottle of solvent the solvent No. is indicated
instead of the ink No.).
3. Repair-TAG:
A repair-TAG will be available if a bottle has been devaluated by mistake or if the

LEIBINGER-JET 2 has been shut down. You find the repair-TAG under the cover flap
of the refilling unit by delivery of the device.
Note! The repair-TAG can only be activated once!

9.1.2 Refill messages
The refill tanks of the LEIBINGER-JET 2 are checked by level sensors. If the minium

If the device will be started again after such refilling process a certain message to
activate the TAG will be indicated.
You will find further information regarding TAG-handling, refilling

the reservoir tank as well as regarding further TAG-messages in the
chapter 9.1.1 Refilling of ink and solvent and so on.

Note!
If ink of an already used and activated bottle has been filled in no

further activation is required!
To refill solvent you have to fill in the complete bottle because the
tank is devaluated and can be not activated anymore!
To refill ink you have only to fill in the half of the bottle because
the content of the ink tank is lower than the content of the bottle!

9.2 Guarantee
The guarantee conditions for the LEIBINGER-JET 2 can be seen from the order
confirmation.
At this point we wish to make explicit reference to the fact that it is only when using
solvent and ink from Paul Leibinger GmbH & Co. KG that the optimum operating
characteristics can be achieved. In the event of use of other inks and solvents all
guarantee entitlements shall cease to apply.
9.3 Service/maintenance

equipment!
9.3.1 Daily servicing work
The daily servicing work includes the checking of the print head and in particular of
the deflector unit, the charging electrode as well as of the guides for dirt. If
necessary the components must be cleaned as described in the chapter Cleaning.
Likewise the filling level of the two storage containers for LEIBINGER ink and
LEIBINGER solvent must be checked. Information on the Refilling of ink and solvent
can be found in the chapter Equipping.
9.3.2 Weekly servicing work
The weekly servicing work includes the checking of the spindles and of the guides
of the nozzle seal for dirt. If necessary the components must be cleaned as
described in the chapter Cleaning. Likewise the nozzle seal must be checked.
9.3.2.1 Lubrication

Remove mains plug!

Risk of fire!
Combustible gases and liquids cause serious burns. Sources of

ignition must be kept away from the print head!
Risk of injury!

The lubrication of the spindles and of the guides of the nozzle seal is not absolutely
necessary, however it ensures easier movement of the gutter. Lubrication with oil
also prevents the depositing of ink that can block the gutter during opening or
closing of the nozzle seal. A commercially available oil can be used for lubrication.
Oil must not get into the cgutter (back absorption)!
9.3.2.2 Nozzle sealing

Remove mains plug!
Risk of fire!

Risk of injury!


The sealing point between nozzle and gutter should be checked in particular before
extended idle periods. A non-tight nozzle seal leads to blocking of the suction
extraction lead during extended idle periods.
Testing procedure
With the nozzle seal closed, apply a couple of drops of solvent to the sealing point
with the spray bottle. If the seal is not tight, the solvent will be sucked into the
suction extraction lead. In this case damage to the O-ring must be assumed. To
replace the O-ring the cross head screws of the clamping plate must be loosened.
Subsequently the screws must be tightened again and the tightness must be
checked again as described above.

Removal and installation or replacement of the nozzle plate
You should proceed as follows when removing or installing the nozzle:
During the closing movement of the print head your fingers could
get caught between deflector unit or nozzle plate and gutter or
during the opening movement between housing and gutter. Keep
your hands outside of the danger area!
! Close the nozzle.

! Switch off the ink using the ink switch in the print head (switch downwards).
! Swivel deflector unit upwards and secure with toggle lever.
! Open the nozzle (move gutter forwards).
! The nozzle plate can be removed following undoing of the knurled screw and
swivelling away of the bar.

! Cleaning of the nozzle only with LEIBINGER solvent against and in the direction
of the current or with the help of an ultrasound bath and subsequent blowing
out with compressed air. Further information on this subject area can be found
in the chapter Cleaning.
! Installation of the cleaned or new nozzle plate.
! The bar that fixes the nozzle plate must be swivelled downwards so that the
nozzle plate is fixed centrally.
! The knurled screw can be tightened as far as the stop (by hand only, without
tools).
! The ink can be switched on with the ink switch (switch upwards). When so
doing, attention should be paid to the fact that in the event of incorrect
installation ink can spray out. Observe safety instructions!
! If the ink jet enters the gutter, the correct position of the jet in the gutter must
be checked and if necessary a fine adjustment must be done with the adjusting
screws. Insufficient or incorrect cleaning leads to jet jumping with repeated
switching on and off of the ink switch. Only if the cleaning has been carried out
correctly will the ink jet always enter the gutter at the same point. Further
information on the adjustment of the ink jet can be found in the chapter Other
servicing work.
! Following the check of the above mentioned points the gutter can be closed and
the deflector unit swivelled downwards carefully by release of the toggle lever.
! Prior to starting the print operation the print head should be checked once again
and possibly cleaned. Further information on this subject area can be found in
the chapter Cleaning. Following an extended idle period it is expedient to switch
the device on and off again in order to trigger a bleeding procedure.
9.3.3 Annual servicing work
The manufacturer recommends a regular servicing interval of 6–12 months. Integral

parts of this servicing are:
! Replacement of filter elements and ink

! Replacement of the O-rings for filter and nozzle seal

9.3.3.1 Filter replacement and ink change

Risk of injury!

With non-pigmented inks the filter insert must be replaced annually, with pigmented
inks every six months.
Filter insert, order no: 54-002326 KA
With the filter change the entire ink content of the device must be replaced and
disposed of properly. The corresponding safety information leaflets DIN 52900 and
the country specific disposal regulations must be observed!
Manner of procedure:
! Place the LEIBINGER- JET 2 in operating mode “Nozzle closed” (1) and “Ink
switch on” (2).
! Deactivate the regulation (3) in the menu level <E29> (main menu !
service/test/system parameter ! service/test & diagnostics ! hydraulic test &

Unscrew only the continuous allan screws!
! Undo the 2 Allan screws and remove the entire pressure tank if the tube
connections allow this (picture sequence 1).
! Place the collection tub underneath the tank and remove both connections for
the viscosity regulation. The ink will run out. If necessary all hydraulic
connections can be removed.
! Unscrew the 8 continuous Allan screws that hold the pressure tank together
(picture sequence 2) and remove the lower half of the housing downwards. The
membrane flange must not be loosened!
! Pull off the filter and slide on the new filter (picture sequence 3).
! Clean any possible dirt in the filter housing with thinner. Examine the O-ring for
damage and clean. If necessary replace.

! Before closing pay attention to the correct seat of the O-ring and check whether
the agitator rod in the lower part is lying on the floor (picture sequence 4).
! Close pressure housing and tighten with the corresponding screws.
! Again insert the pressure tank and attach the tube connections.
! The further steps are carried out in an empty condition as with the initial
commissioning. Further information can be found in the chapter Start up!

9.3.4 Other servicing work
9.3.4.1 Adjusting the ink jet in the gutter

Remove mains plug!
Risk of fire!

Risk of injury!

If you use a new nozzle, it is necessary to readjust the ink jet. This can be carried
out with adjusting screws (cross head) located on the holder of the deflector unit by
screwing in or out (swivelling upwards or downwards or to the left or right) (see
following illustration). In order to achieve a better contrast in poor light it is helpful
if you first of all clean the guttere and the print head chassis with Leibinger solvent
and hold white paper behind or below the gutter. Further information on this subject
area can be found in the chapter Cleaning.
The adjustment of the ink jet must first of all be performed

vertically then horizontally!
The correct jet position can be seen from the following illustration!
The correct position of the ink jet must be checked in order to ensure that no
deposits develop in the gutter.

Figure 110

Should deposits develop on the gutter without print operation, the ink jet is too tight
against the outside of the gutter in the horizontal direction.
Should deposits develop on the gutter with print operation, the ink jet is too far in
the middle of the gutter in the horizontal direction.
With special applications, e.g. very small fonts, the position can be readjusted
following consultation with the manufacturer.

9.3.5 Servicing work with more difficult operating conditions
With more difficult operating conditions such as extremely high or low ambient
temperature, heavy dust levels or high humidity etc., some servicing work should be
carried out earlier. The time must however be estimated on the basis of experience
values. This applies above all for:
! Changing the ink (high water content or destruction of the binding agent)
! Replacement of the filter insert

9.4 Cleaning
9.4.1 Daily cleaning work
9.4.1.1 Cleaning the print head

Remove mains plug!
Risk of fire!

Risk of injury!
Risk of injury!

The print head must be checked daily and cleaned in the event of recognisable dirt
through penetrating dust or ink. In this respect high release of solvent vapours
should be avoided through the economical use of Leibinger solvent (corresponding
to the Leibinger ink). This is achieved through applying the Leibinger solvent to fluff-
free paper with the spray bottle and wiping off the parts to be cleaned with this.
Direct spraying off of the print head with solvent should only be carried out with
very major dirt and should be limited to the front part of the print head. Following
intensive cleaning the nozzle seal must be lubricated with a commercially available
oil (spindle and guide). Oil must not get into the gutter (back absorption)! Solvent
dropping down must be collected using a solvent resistant metal vessel and
disposed of properly.


9.4.1.2 Cleaning the deflector unit and gutter

Deflector unit 3
Clean gutter (3) carefully with solvent! The deflector unit consists of a charging
electrode (1) and a deflector plate (2). To clean the deflector plate the gutter must
first of all be closed in order to prevent damage to the nozzle seal. Only close head
with clean gutter!
During the closing movement of the print head your fingers could
get caught between deflector unit or nozzle plate and gutter or
during the opening movement between housing and gutter. Keep
your hands outside of the danger area!

After this the deflector unit can be swivelled upwards and secured with the toggle
lever. The cleaning of the deflector unit can then be started. In this respect it is
helpful to first of all position the dry cleaning cloth between the parts to be cleaned
and only then to spray with LEIBINGER solvent. After cleaning dry the deflector unit
(e.g. with compressed air). Subsequently the deflector unit can again be swivelled
carefully downwards following release of the toggle lever. It is not necessary to use
tools for this.

Risk of injury!
Risk of injury!



Should ink dry in the nozzle as a result of operating errors or should the nozzle be
blocked with dirt particles or the ink jet not enter the gutter, the nozzle must be
dismantled and cleaned.
Experience shows that the cleaning of the nozzle with LEIBINGER solvent and
blowing out with compressed air against the direction of the current is sufficient to
free the nozzle. Should this not be possible, the nozzle must be cleaned in an
ultrasound bath (covered with LEIBINGER solvent) for at least 5 minutes and
subsequently again blown out with LEIBINGER solvent and compressed air.
Ultrasonic bath, order no: 54-002 347 K
In this respect it should be noted that the adjusted position of the ink jet cannot
alter suddenly. If the ink jet no longer enters the gutter this is usually due to the
fact that dirt particles or dried ink are situated in the nozzle intake.
Figure 115

2 – Nozzle stone
3 – Nozzle plate
4 – Clamping plate
In case of stubborn ink residue it can be permitted to remove the residue with a
tooth-pick (wooden only).
Caution: Risk of damage!
For this the nozzle is first of all rinsed out with LEIBINGER solvent and the jet is
blown dry from both directions with compressed air. Thereafter you move to the
nozzle stone (2) from both sides with a tooth-pick (wooden only). By means of light
pressure and turning the ink remains are detached from the nozzle stone.
Subsequently the nozzle is again rinsed with LEIBINGER solvent and blown out with
compressed air.
Nozzle adjustment: once set correctly the nozzle retains its

position.
In the event of the jet varying from the normal position: Clean
nozzle until old position sets itself again automatically.

Checking of the jet cleaning carried out
With repeated switching of the ink flow valve (by pressing of the ink on/off switch)
the ink jet must always assume the same position. If this is not the case, renewed
cleaning is necessary.

12.3 Calculation of the print speed
Calculation of the maximum possible print speed VP depending on character width, font
form, number of lines, 64 and 96 kHz drop frequency and various draft modes. The
various draft modes are to be understood as meaning the use of various drop loading
sequences which has a qualitative influence on print quality. The best print quality is
achieved with the draft mode 0 (with the lowest character height), on the other hand
the maximum print speed based on the font width is lower based.
The draft mode 2 enables the highest print speed (up to 9 dot character height),
however it does not have the optimum drop distribution. The character height must be
set up to 100. The draft mode 1 constitutes a compromise for for faster print speed (up
to 16 dot, character height variably)
The Draftmode 3 is for fast barcode printing up to 24 dot. The character height is
variably.
The Draftmode 4 (up to 24 dot) is for extremely small fonts. Character height variably.
Figure 121 a a = stroke gap in mm on the character <E> in

the 7x5 matrix
The achievable character height is of no significance for the calculation but rather must
only be observed in the choice of font and for good legibility in accordance with the
requirements.
The maximum and in particular the minimum character height depend to a very great
extent on the ink used, the material and the surface.
