Ink Replenishment

Ink reservoir

Cap

Open the maintenance cover and then pull out the reservoir.

Hold the reservoir and pull it forward.

Uncap the ink reservoir and then add ink.

●

Adjust the amount of replenishment in accordance with the ink

consumption. Exercise care to avoid excessive replenishment.

7.3 Ink Replenishment

(1) Overview

●

While the printer is operated, the ink is automatically transferred at fixed intervals

from the ink reservoir to the main ink tank for replenishment purposes.

●

If the Ink Low Warning is issued, add ink to the ink reservoir within 60 minutes.

If such a replenishment procedure is not completed within 60 minutes, the printer

comes to a stop.

●

Ink can be added to the ink reservoir without regard to the IJ printer power ON/

OFF status or operating status.

●

Upon ink replenishment, the warning is automatically cleared.

●

Before replenishing the JP-K60, JP-K69, JP-K84, JP-K90, JP-Y91,JP-Y94 ink, be

sure to shake the ink bottle well until the precipitated pigment has been dispersed.

Also make sure that there is no sedimentation in ink reservoir or main ink tank (see

"Usage Precautions" on page 1-5, 1-6, 1-8).

(2) Operating procedure

●

When moving the reservoir, move it gently.

Ink reservoir

Maintenance cover

If ink is accidentally spilt,

wipe it up promptly with

wiping paper or something

similar.

In addition, do not close the

maintenance cover until you

are sure that the wiped

portion has completely dried.

CAUTION

Fasten the cap of the ink reservoir.

●

Fasten it securely. Solvent components may evaporate.

Return the reservoir to its original position.

Close the maintenance cover.

Pull out.
