Maintaining the Ink System
10.1
The Mailing System uses ink jet technology to print stamps. The ink tank used for printing
is located in the Mailing System base and contains an ink that is compulsory for postal
transactions.
The Ink tank is specific to the system base in which it has been installed. Never try to install
it in another Mailing System.
When the tank is empty, it must be replaced.
The ink jet technology requires clean print-head nozzles to provide excellent printing quality.
The system performs that cleaning automatically.
In this Section
This section explains how to:
• Check the ink level in the tank
• Change the ink tank
• Check the print head
• Clean the print head
Displaying Ink Tank Data
You can display the ink level and other ink tank data, including:
• Ink consumed in percent
• Ink color
• Tank status (present or not present)
• Date first used
Check the Best before date on the tank. After this date, the tank
warranty is void.
