7.1 MAINTENANCE
The facsimile machine's maintenance includes
periodic preventive procedures
(such as optical unit cleaning), and
action to be taken following a message
on the
display (such as the ink out message): the procedures are normally carried out by the
user so they will be described in detail in the User Guide. Here only a brief description
is provided.
7.1.1 OUT OF INK Message
The facsimile machine has a built-in counter for keeping track of ink consumption,
so as to provide an ink out message at the right time. When the ink present in the
cartridge runs out, the display shows the following message:
OUT OF INK
to prompt the operator to:
- replace the
ink cartridge
, if the print head is of the
rechargeable
type
- replace the
entire print head
, if it is of the
disposable
type.
If a rechargeable print head is used, the ink cartridge can be replaced several times.
When a deterioration in the printing quality is observed, after several replacements,
this means that the entire print head is to be replaced.
While replacing the
cartridge only
, but not the entire print head, a little ink may be
ejected, to prevent the printing area from getting dirty, when the out of ink message
appears,
a sheet of paper is automatically inserted
under the print carriage.
