SECTION 2
INSTALLING THE PRINTER
22
Printhead Nozzle Area
7.
Carefully insert the printhead cartridge into the compartment at an angle, with the print nozzle surface
facing down and the ink receptacles facing towards the Ink Couplings and
hoses; as shown [Fig A].
8.
Once the cartridge is fully inserted, gently but firmly rotate the top of the
cartridge to a vertical position; as shown [Fig B]. DO NOT FORCE the
cartridge into position. If it does not rotate, check to be sure it is fully inserted.
9.
DO NOT close the Printhead Latch at this time. First, open the clamshell with
both hands. Using a lint-free cloth soaked
with deionized or distilled water
,
wet the entire Printhead Nozzle area.
Be liberal
with the amount of water you
leave behind on the nozzles (the thin dark line on bottom of printhead
cartridge). See images below.
10.
Immediately after wetting the nozzles surface, GENTLY close the clamshell.
CAUTION:
To prevent damage, hold onto, then lift and release both latches
when closing. If you force it closed without holding the latches open, you
will eventually damage the latches and clamshell switch (door switch).

WARNING
: Be careful not to damage
the “star rollers” when wiping the
printhead. These rollers are designed
so they can roll across a wet image,
without damaging the image. If the
rollers are bent, they will not turn free;
causing media feed issues (jamming)
and possible damage to the image or
media.
