3.8 WORKING WITH MUTOHS SMARTCHIP MANAGEMENT
SYSTEM
3.8.1 Introduction
On each ink cassette, a SmartChip is attached. On this SmartChip, ink volume is stored. When printing, the
ink volume will be reduced from the SmartChip.
When working with Mutoh's Bulk Ink System, no SmartChips are attached to the cartridges. Therefore, each
bulk ink bottle includes a SmartChip with the necessary ink volume.
The SmartChip management system makes it possible to load this ink volume via the SmartChip slot
installed at the back of the printer.
With this feature it is also possible to:
review the remaining ink volume
scan the ink cassette slots for ink volume
Important
Do not pull any SmartChip cards from ink cassettes to use them in the reader. The ink volume
on the SmartChip cards of the cassettes can be transferred to the SmartChip management
system by scanning them one by one. Please find in the next coming chapters more info.
