5. Filling Ink Bottles
1. Pour Inks into the Ink Bottles:
Remove the lids of the bulk ink bottles, and slowly
pour the ink into the ink bottles.
Please Note: Pour the ink gently so as to avoid
creating air bubbles when pouring the ink. If
bubbles are formed then do not run the printer
until all the bubbles have settled
.
2. Open the Valves:
Turn all valves to put through ink
(as shown in picture on right)
3. Press the “INK FILL” Button to Start Filling the Ink:
Press & hold the Ink Fill Button to start filling the ink
lines with ink. This pulls the ink through to the print
head. To stop filling, release the button. Some ink
colours may take longer than others to pull all the way
through to the dampers & print head. In this case, you
can close the ink valves (see section 2 above) for those
colours that have fully charged, then continue filling
those colours that have not.
This will prevent unnecessary wastage of ink. The ink is
fully charged when you can see ink in the dampers (refer
to the Printer Components section above for the location
of the dampers).
Remember to open any ink valves that you may
have closed.
