Setup Instructions
Selecting Paper
For information on selecting the appropriate paper to use with your SubliJet inks,
please check our website at www.sublimation.com or call your authorized SubliJet
reseller. While the use of copy paper or other inkjet paper will not harm your printer,
the transferred results may be light, splotchy or uneven and some papers may stick to
the surface or leave a visible residue
Installing Your SubliJet Cartridges
IMPORTANT
:
You must install and print with Epson OEM ink cartridges prior
to using SubliJet
Before you load your first set of SubliJet ink cartridges into your EPSON Stylus
COLOR 3000 printer, you must install your Epson OEM ink cartridges. Installing the
OEM cartridges provides you the opportunity to familiarize yourself with the printer,
verify its operation, and understand its performance. Follow the instructions found in
the Epson supplied
Quick Start Guide
for setup and ink loading instructions.
The cartridge loading instructions for SubliJet are the same as for the Epson supplied
ink cartridges. However, before installing your first set of SubliJet ink cartridges you
must perform a special ink unloading procedure to remove the Epson OEM ink from
the printer. This procedure is documented in the
EPSON Stylus COLOR 3000 User’s
Guide
in the section entitled
Transporting the Printer
. For your convenience the ink
unloading procedure is summarized below.
Ø
To Unload OEM Ink
1. Turn on the printer.
2. Remove all four of the ink cartridges.
3. Close the ink compartment door.
4. Turn off the printer.
5. Wait until the printer stops making noise and all control panel lights stop flashing.
NOTE: This may take 3 - 5 minutes.
