Installing Ink Cartridges
Supported Ink Cartridges
The PF-3 Print Factory uses 1 tri-color ink cartridge and 1 black ink cartridge. The part numbers for
these cartridges are V102C (color) and V101B (black). If other cartridges are installed, the PF-3 Print
Factory will not function. These cartridges are available from any Microboards reseller.
Refill kits or non-Microboards ink cartridges are not recommended for use in the PF-3 Print
Factory system. Use of non-Microboards cartridges will cause the printer to fail. Use of
refilled cartridges may cause the PF-3 Print Factory to fail and may affect your warranty.
Loading / Replacing Ink Cartridges
Cartridges can be changed while the PF-3 Print Factory is on. The Out of Ink LED will light if any
cartridge is beginning to run low on ink.
•
With the printer on, open the front cover and wait for the print carriage to move to the center
of the printer.
•
Lift the cartridge latch by lifting the center of the front of the latch.
•
If replacing an empty ink cartridge, remove the cartridge that needs changing by sliding the
cartridge towards the front of the Printer.
•
Remove each new print cartridge to be installed from its packaging.
•
Remove the protective covering from the printheads before installing the cartridges.
•
Slide the correct ink cartridge into the correct slot – color on the left, black on the right.
•
Lower the cartridge latch until it locks into place by applying gentle pressure to the finger
depression.
Do not try to force the latch down.
•
Close the front cover.
Any time you change ink cartridges, you should always wait until the printer has primed the
cartridges before sending it a print job. The priming cycle will take 70-80 seconds to complete
after the door is closed.
Lowering the Cartridge Latch
The latch on the right in is the
correct position. The left latch is
being closed.
Inserting or Removing a Cartridge
After lifting the cartridge latch,
slide the cartridge back to insert,
or forward to remove.
