3. Ink Cartridges
The cartridges for the printer are especially optimised and registered cartridges, which guaranties a maximum
quality of the printing. To ensure such a high quality of the cartridges and the ink, you can not buy these cartridges
in a regular store. You have to buy the cartridges from your distributor.
3.1 Status LEDs
Normally, when all cartridges are installed and filled, the LEDs are switched off.
When the ink inside a cartridge is les than 20% to 25% the corresponding LED
went on and illuminates steadily.
The LED is blinking, when the ink inside the cartridge is empty, or when the car-
tridge is defective or wrong placed.
If one or more wrong cartridges are installed, these LEDs may light up while the
tray is moving. In this case, the printer is not able to print. You have to replace
the Cartridge(s) with proper ones.
When one or more of these LED are blinking, the printer is not able to print. He
cannot react to commands from outside. Moving the tray is not possible and also
the Tool Printer Service Terminal is no longer working. You have to bring the
printer out of this error state first, before you can continue.
More about the status LED ink cartridges you can read in the Appendix.
3.2 Replacing cartridges…
Before buying replacement cartridges, verify the correct part numbers.
Damage that is directly attributable to modified or refilled cartridges is specifically excluded from the print-
er’s warranty coverage.
If the printer is switched off, no additional action is required, just replace the cartridges.
If the printer is powered on, open the service cover and let it open. The Power light and the Resume light are on now,
and the ink pump is deactivated. Replace the cartridges now and close the service cover after that. Wait until the
printer has recognized and initialised the changed cartridges.
