4.4.4.6. Turning the Head off
In the main MENU select the
SERVICE
item and then the
INK OFF
item.
This command is used to turn the head off completely. The complete turning off
consists of giving the pipes, gun and nozzles a thorough rinse (as during the switch
off procedure) and of isolating the head from the ink system and electronic printing
system. The execution of the command is finished when the lamp indicators
V0
,
V1
,
V6
go out.
This command can be applied when the unit is to be switched on but you do not want
ink to circulate within the head. It is used more intensively for printers with many
heads.
NOTE:
•
If the flow of solvent is turned on within the head, the command operates in
a simplified way, as the
FAST OFF
command does (solvent is sucked from the
nozzle and gun for about 2 seconds and the
V6
solvent valve is closed.
•
The
INK OFF
command must not be executed many times over a short period.
Otherwise the ink is thinned excessively. The command should not be
executed more frequently than every 2 working hours.
•
The command is ignored during printing.
•
After the command has been executed the printer switches to the
restart
mode.
4.4.4.7. Turning the Flow of Solvent On
In the main MENU select the
SERVICE
item and then the
SOLVENT
item.
This command is used to turn on the flow of solvent to the head. When the flow is on
the green lamp indicator
V6
on the internal panel comes on. The following ink-related
commands can be executed when the flow of solvent is turned on:
•
CLEAN NOZZLE
,
•
FAST OFF
,
this applies to solvent,
•
INK ON
.
NOTE:
•
The command is ignored during printing.
•
After the command has been executed the printer switches to the
restart
mode.
•
If the flow of solvent lasts too long, then the printer’s ink system may be overfilled.
4.4.4.8. Adjusting the Ink Jet Path
In the main MENU select the
SERVICE
item and then the
SET INK STREAM
item.
NOTE:
The
SET INK STREAM
command is strictly a service command. It can only be used
by a qualified service person. The use of the command for purposes different from
those it has been designed for may result in splashing the head and other objects
with ink
!!!
After the
SET INK STREAM
command has been selected, a coherent jet
of ink drops starts flowing out of the head.
