SECTION 5 MAINTENANCE Ink Tank Disposal The Ink Tank may be disposed of in a normal manner. Clean up spills with soap and water. Abrasive soap is effective in cleaning ink off your hands. Cleaning the Printhead Cartridge The Printhead Cartridge is cleaned automatically; each time the printer is turned ON, before each job, periodically during the print job, and when a User Maintenance Level routine is performed by the operator.
SECTION 5 MAINTENANCE Manual Printhead Cleaning: NOTE: We recommend the use of nitrile powder-free gloves for this process. As a last resort, if running the built-in “... Clean Printhead” features don’t help improve print quality; the printhead cartridge can be cleaned manually. 1. Carefully open the clamshell. 2. Clean the printhead nozzles. Dampen a lint-free cloth (i.e. Cartridge Wipes, PN 2023), with deionized or distilled water.
SECTION 5 MAINTENANCE Replacing the Printhead Cartridge The following procedure describes how to remove the Printhead Cartridge from the printer. ATTENTION If you experienced fuzzy print quality or an abrupt failure in a particular area of nozzles on the previous printhead; we recommend that you have the service station inspected/cleaned and the wiper roller replaced, before installing the new printhead. If not; the chance of damage to the new printhead is greatly increased.
SECTION 5 MAINTENANCE Printhead Storage & Shelf Life Properly stored, unopened, Printhead Cartridges have a shelf life of up to 1 year. Long Term: 14° F to 86° F (-10° C to 30° C) Storage Temperature Range: Short Term: -11° F to 140° F (-25° C to 60° C) NOTE: Cumulative storage duration above 86° F (30° C) must not exceed 72 hours.
SECTION 5 MAINTENANCE Inspecting & Cleaning the Lip of the Capping Station The Capping Station (Cap) is part of the Service Station. When the printer is idle, the Service Station automatically caps the printhead to keep the nozzles hydrated. Excess ink can accumulate on the Lip of the Cap. This commonly occurs after a printhead cartridge is installed and the system is primed. During the printhead priming process the system performs multiple purges of ink into the Cap.
SECTION 5 MAINTENANCE Inspecting the Wiper Roller The Wiper Roller should be routinely inspected for signs of wear and debris. NOTICE! If you have not been trained or are uncomfortable performing this task, please contact your service support representative. Directions: 1. Power ON the printer and power-up the print engine. 2.

SECTION 6 TROUBLESHOOTING Section 6 – Troubleshooting Guide The following troubleshooting guides are provided to assist you in solving any problems that might occur with the Digital Color Printer. We have tried to make them as complete as possible. The best advice we can offer is to make sure that the system is set up properly, plugged in, and that it has an adequate supply of ink before attempting to troubleshoot any problem.
SECTION 6 TROUBLESHOOTING Examples of Print Quality Issues (including possible causes and solutions) The Memjet printhead cartridge contains 70,400 inkjet nozzles. These nozzles are divided into ten rows; two rows of nozzles for each color channel. Due to the high number of nozzles; it is not uncommon for some nozzles to become contaminated, dehydrated or clogged. The following examples were produced using a Five Band Color Purge YKCKM.
SECTION 6 TROUBLESHOOTING Clogged/Damaged/Dead Nozzles: Clogged/damaged/dead/ nozzles will normally show as thin, crisp, vertical lines of missing color. Multiple adjacent nozzles, with same issue, will show as wider, crisp, vertical lines of missing color. Clogged nozzles are normally due to Printhead nozzle dehydration or partial contamination. Damaged nozzles are normally due to improper cleaning or debris on wiper roller causing damage to head.
SECTION 6 TROUBLESHOOTING Color Mixing Issues: Color mixing will show as muddy, mottled or distorted (grainy) colors. Color mixing occurs when the ink from one color channel crosses over into another color channel. Since the inkjet nozzle rows are located very close to one another (ten rows of 7,040 nozzles, located within a 0.8 mm space), it is easy for partials or fibers to create bridges across color channels.
SECTION 6 TROUBLESHOOTING Scuff Marks and Smudging Issues: Scuff Marks occur when the media makes contact with an area of the printhead that has ink on it. Smudging occurs when the wet image, on the media, makes contact with something (most commonly the printhead) before it is dry. This issue will also increase the chance for scuff marks. Scuff Marks: Here is an example of “scuff marks” that occurred when the high points (thicker/puffier areas) on this #10 envelope made contact with the printhead.
SECTION 6 TROUBLESHOOTING Smudging: Here is an example of “smudging” that occurred when an area of this page, with a wet image, made contact with the printhead. Note: There are also scuff marks in this example. As mentioned previously; smudging will increase the chance for scuff marks; by deposition ink onto other areas of the printhead. Direction of transport Possible Solutions to Reduce Smudging: • Check to be sure the “Head Media Guide” is properly installed and clean.
SECTION 6 TROUBLESHOOTING Fuzzy/Distorted Print Fuzzy/distorted print can occur for a number of reasons; listed/shown below. Problem: Poor original image quality (less than 300 dpi). Solution: Use high quality images. Problem: Choosing to print image in low resolution from software application. Solution: Set image to highest resolution possible from software application. Problem: Paper is buckling or bowing during the time of printing. Solution: Try removing the PPS spacers.
SECTION 6 TROUBLESHOOTING The Ink Tank(s) CONDITION PROBLEM SOLUTION Installed New Ink Tank and shortly after the related Ink Channel (color) stopped printing and or the related color tube went empty. CAUTION! Do NOT continue printing in this condition. Damage to the Printhead will result. One or more of the “septum needles” didn’t fully puncture the septum seal on the new Ink Tank. Antistatic Brush Assembly was not installed properly. Defective Ink Tank. Septum seal is not being punctured by needle.
SECTION 6 TROUBLESHOOTING The Printhead Cartridge The Memjet printhead cartridge contains over 70,000 inkjet nozzles. These nozzles are divided into ten rows; two rows of nozzles for each color channel. Due to the very tiny size of each nozzle and the high number of nozzles; it is not uncommon for some nozzles to become contaminated or clogged. CONDITION Mixed, mottled, muddy or distorted colors. PROBLEM SOLUTION Ink color channel mixing within the printhead cartridge/nozzles.
SECTION 6 TROUBLESHOOTING The Printhead Cartridge (continued) CONDITION System will not prime the printhead after installing Printhead Cartridge (During the priming process one or more of the ink color tubes are not filling with ink.) PROBLEM Printhead nozzles dry (air pulled through nozzles; not allowing system to create vacuum) Capping station not making good seal against the printhead. Pinched/kinked ink tube(s) SOLUTION Wet the Printhead nozzles using distilled water and a wet, lint-free cloth.
SECTION 6 TROUBLESHOOTING The Printer NOTICE: The printer will not print if any of the five ink tanks are empty or missing. Dots or Lines Printed on Media CONDITION PROBLEM SOLUTION Multiple horizontal black lines are printed down the length of the media. You have exceeded the maximum print width of 8.5”. Reduce paper width to 8.5” to avoid exceeding the max print width of printer. NOTE: This symptom only occurs with older firmware. Contact Service Support to update the printer’s firmware.
SECTION 6 TROUBLESHOOTING Service Station Problems WARNING! Many of the issues related to Service Station function will require a qualified Service Person, or properly trained person, to diagnose and fix these issues. If you haven’t been properly trained on or don’t feel comfortable performing these procedures; please contact your Service Support Representative. CONDITION Service Station Drive Motor stalls. Wiper Motor doesn’t turn or stalls PROBLEM Service Station was not installed properly.
SECTION 6 TROUBLESHOOTING Interface Communication Problems CONDITION M Series Driver does not respond to printer being connected via USB. Driver shows printer off-line, even with printer connected and powered-up. PROBLEM SOLUTION Wrong USB port selected in “M Series Driver”. Verify that you are selecting the appropriate USB port in the driver Ports Tab. Note: During driver install the USB port was automatically assigned.
SECTION 6 TROUBLESHOOTING Feeding Problems CONDITION PROBLEM SOLUTION Paper stuck together. Uneven mail piece. The Media Support Wedge adds a slope to the stack and helps feeding. Readjust Side Guides. Clean the Feed Roller with distilled water and a cloth. Do NOT use any solvents as they may damage Rollers. Fan media before placing it in Printer. Tap inserts to front of envelopes and retry. Multiple feeds (double feeding) Separator gap not set properly. Media stuck together.
