Troubleshooting guide

SECTION 4

MAINTENANCE

1. Wet the Printhead Surface. This

ensures that the Printhead will prime

correctly. Open the Top Cover. Release

and lift the two latches at the same time

to raise the Print Engine Clamshell.

Moisten the Printhead nozzles using

distilled water and a damp, lint-free

cloth, wiping end to end. (Gray strip

located below orange strip.) Close and

latch the Print Engine Clamshell.

CAUTION

HOLD ONTO BOTH LATCHES

WHEN OPENING AND CLOSING

THE PRINT ENGINE CLAMSHELL

TO PREVENT DAMAGE.

DO NOT ALLOW THE CLAMSHELL

TO DROP OR SLAM CLOSED.

TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE INK

LINES, A STOP LIMITS RAISING

THE CLAMSHELL MORE THAN 60°.

2. Close the Printhead Latch [6]. The Printer

will start up and prime ink into the Printhead.

This may take a few minutes. Make sure that

ink is flowing through the hoses. If air bubbles

appear you may have to tap the lines or click

“Circulate Ink” in the Printer Toolbox to clear them.

3. Watch the Toolbox screen again. Notice that some of the

information is in red. As the Printer circulates ink and primes

the system these fields should all turn black.

4. When the Printer stops processing and all the fields in

System Status are black, the Printer is ready for use. Close

the Top Cover.

IMPORTANT!

CHECK INK TANKS. PRINTER MAY NOT FULLY

REPRIME IF TANKS ARE LESS THAN 1/3 FULL.

NOTE: The Printer may take up to 12 minutes to set itself up

during initial startup. This is normal.
