tion. Press release button 5 three

The printer does not print
On starting printing and making an
attempt to print you can hear the
electromagnets of the nozzle valves
operating but ink drops are not always
jetted out of the nozzles properly. The
quality of printing deteriorates or no
print is produced.
After about 100 standard ink contain-
ers (or over 10 litres of ink) have been
consumed, the built-in ink filter may
need replacing. It is recommended
that the replacement operation be
performed by qualified or EBS service
staff.
Boldfaced or Blurred Prints
The print is heavily saturated with ink,
ink drops blur and the entire print
seems to spread over the object be-
ing labelled.
Decrease the setting of the Dot size
parameter by moving the parameter
slider to the left.
