MAINTENANCE
6. Wet the Printhead Surface. This
ensures that the Printhead will prime
correctly. Open the Top Cover. Release
and lift the 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
DROP OR SLAM CLOSED.
TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE INK
LINES, A STOP LIMITS RAISING THE
ASSEMBLY MORE THAN 60°.
7. 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.
8. Watch the Toolbox screen. Notice that some of the information is in red. As the Printer circulates
ink and primes the system these fields should all turn black.
9. 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 15 minutes to set itself up during initial startup. This is normal.
