4.2. Removing Air from the Ink System
Transport, manipulations to the ink system or other reasons may result in accumulation of air within
the print head. In consequence, ink droplets are not jetted from some or all nozzles.
In order to remove air from the print head, follow the instructions below:
a). Turn the nozzle outlets towards a waste-ink dish (that is used to wash the printer, for example).
b). Press and hold down the
PRINT ON/OFF
button on the operation panel on the back wall of the
printer housing. This opens all electromagnets within the head to pressure-release air bubbles
and ink.
c). Continue the air removal process until a regular and continuous ink jet starts flowing out of each
nozzle.
d). Release the
PRINT ON/OFF
button.
NOTE:
The frequent and lengthy use of the rinse function increases ink consumption.
