Initialization Utilities
U.S. Screen is not liable for any damage caused by ink to property
such as carpets, flooring or furniture . Please read and understand
all operating and maintenance procedures before using the Fast
T-Jet Blazer Pro.
You have the Bulk Ink System in place and the Printer Driver installed, but there
is one more step to take before you can start printing; you must perform an
initialization process that will get the ink flowing, set the Platen to the correct
height for printing and ensure the Print Head Nozzles are in proper alignment to
output the best possible images.
To begin the initialization, turn the printer ON by setting the breaker switch to
the UP position. Wait five seconds for the Red indicator light and then press the
Orange Power button on the UI.
Head Cleanings
There are two types of Head Cleanings available for use on the Fast T-Jet
Blazer Pro- a regular cleaning and a Power Cleaning . Both unclog the Nozzles
so they can deliver ink properly. However, depending upon the severity of your
problem, your only option may be the Power Cleaning. Be advised, a Power
Cleaning will consume a lot of ink.
To prevent having to do Power Cleanings, we recommend initiating at least
one regular head cleaning cycle each day. A Regular Head Cleaning cycle
will also use a fair amount of ink, but not nearly as much as a Power Cleaning.
Power Cleaning
You must perform a Power Cleaning during setup to ensure ink is proper flowing
through the ink lines. You will need to execute approximately three Power
Cleanings to initialize your printer.
Power Cleanings are executed from the LCD Control Panel with the virtual dial in
Manual on the Mode Select Screen of the UI:
Place the printer in 1. Print status. This is done by lifting the printer cover and
locating the LCD Control Panel above the White ink cartridges. Press the LEFT
