About the Ink Cartridge
The ink cartridge for printing is located in the Mailing System and contains fluorescent red
ink that has been tested and approved by Canada Post.
The ink cartridge uses ink jet technology. It requires the print head nozzles to be cleaned
regularly to provide high printing quality. The system performs cleaning automatically or
you can also clean the heads manually if the automatic cleaning is not sufficient.
The ink cartridge contains two print heads that must be aligned if lines appear offset in the
impression.
If you observe poor print quality (streaked, too light, blurred, etc.),
see
on page 249.
