Additional information about iModule

®

 replacement: 

 All the 

time while the 

iModule

® 

replacement procedure is being followed, the 

message 

iModule replacement in progress

 is being displayed in the printer status window. 

  Any removal of the iModule

®

 from the printer is indicated by short acoustic signals. 

  The replacing of the iModule

®

 should take as little time as possible (a new iModule

®

 should be installed 

immediately the previous one has been removed) to prevent printer subassemblies (mainly switching-over 
contact pins) from drying up. 

  After the new iModule

®

 has been filled with ink, the time of ink flight in the head (displayed in the printer status 

window) can exceed the permissible range for some time. A short-lived deterioration of print quality can also 
occur. If the symptoms do not disappear within 1 to 2 hours, contact your service point. 

  If an attempt is made to install the iModule

®

 whose use-by date (the 

Shelf life

 parameter) is exceeded, 

the 

iModule shelf life expired

 message is displayed and the module is not accepted. A valid module shall be 

used. 

 If 

the 

iModule

®

 replacement procedure is interrupted (

e.g.

 due to a power failure), it will re-continue after re-

start. 

 If the 

iModule replacement aborted

 message is displayed in the printer status window, this means that 

the user did not agree to the installation of a new iModule

®

. In such a case it is impossible to start printing. 

The iModule

®

 replacement procedure should be restarted and followed to the end.
