SECTION 3
OPERATING THE PRINTER

Services Tab
Services allows you to:
• Print Configuration Page – Prints out the
current configuration of the Printer including
current Firmware Version, Network
Connection, Printer Engine Serial Number and
more.
• Print Colorbar Page – Prints 7 solid blocks of
color bars to show how well the Printhead is
mixing colors and printing. Prints four blocks
of mixed color (black, red, green, purple) along
with three blocks representing the cyan,
magenta, and yellow ink channels.
• Print Diagnostic Page – Shows basic printer
information, memory, Network Settings, Event
Log and RAM partitions.
• User Maintenance, Levels 1 to 3
Level 1 – Circulates ink, wipes and cleans the
Printhead Cartridge.
Level 2 – Runs cleaning and wiping routine twice for better flushing and cleaning.
Level 3 – Runs the cleaning routine multiple times for the most thorough flushing and cleaning of
the Printhead.
NOTE: If the Printer is connected to a network and the Driver buttons fail to activate the cleaning
process, you can perform the same functions from the Toolbox User Interface.
• Wipe Printhead – Wipes and cleans excess ink from the Printhead Cartridge.
• Printhead Release – Use this feature to prepare the printer for the installation or removal of the
Printhead Cartridge. This feature pumps some
of the ink back into the Ink Tanks and then it
releases (opens) the Printhead Latch. Same as using the Printhead Latch Release Button.
See “Installing Printhead Cartridge” or “Replacing Printhead Cartridge” for more details
• System Deprime – Use this feature to prepare the printer for service or transport to a remote
location. This feature pumps most
of the ink back into the Ink Tanks and then releases (opens) the
Printhead Latch. See Appendix “Preparing the Printer for Transport” for more details.
