Changing the Print Head
We recommend you to ALWAYS use your original supplier for print heads
and ink cartridges.
The print head is removed either to replace it or to ensure correct insertion, in
the case of faulty printing. The following section applies to both monochrome
and color print heads.
If dots or lines are not printed completely, remove the print head completely
and replace / reinsert it, and / or execute the print head cleaning and / or
PRIME operations (see the specific sections in this chapter).
When the an "end of ink" condition is indicated by the On-Line and On
indicators flashing alternately, you must either replace the ink cartridge
(monochrome print heads only) or, if necessary, change the entire print head.
WARNING: When the printer is already switched on and a print operation is
running, press the On-Line button to interrupt printing BEFORE opening the
top cover.
To return the printer to operating state, close the top cover and press the
On-
Line
button.
To remove the entire print head:
• Press the Install Cartridge button on the operator panel.
• The print head carriage will move to the print head loading position, at the
centre of the carriage shaft.
• Open the top cover.
