SECTION 3

OPERATING THE PRINTER

Ink Usage

Provides the estimated volume (nL) of ink used, from

each Ink Tank, for each print job that was completed.

• Does not include ink used during

maintenance cycles.

• Pieces printed during the job will be separated

by any maintenance cycles and pauses that

occurred during the run.

• This information is cleared whenever the

printer is reset (turned off/on).

Ink Estimation Mode – Allows for the estimation of

ink usage; without actually feeding or printing on

media.

After selecting “Enabled” and clicking on "Submit", the text “Ink Estimation Mode” should appear at the

left side of the Toolbox screen.

Send your job to the printer. The printer will accept the job, but will not feed or print.

When the job has finished being sent to printer; check the Ink Usage page to obtain results.

NOTE: Don’t forget to unselect “Enabled” and click on “Submit” when you are finished using this Ink

Estimation Mode.

Tip: The estimating process will take as long as the job would take to print (i.e., if the job would take 1

hour to print, the estimate will take 1 hour to display.). To reduce estimation time, only send part of the job

for estimation purposes. For example: If you have a 200,000 piece job. Send only 200 records, and multiply

the Ink Usage by 1,000.
