6-26
Definition:
Ink travels from the Nozzle Plate thru the Charge Electrode and then passes between the Defection
Plates. Unprinted drops are collected in the gutter block and travels up the gutter tube back to the Ink
Tank to be reused. This ink passes thru a sensor (5 inches or 12.7cm for the Standard printhead & 2
inches or 5cm for a Micro printhead) that senses ink in the gutter. It does this by the conductive ink
shorting the sensor to ground (printhead chassis). If ink is not detected (ink stream missing the gutter
hole) or the ink is diluted (by rinsing the ink off the Gutter Block while the ink stream is on) this error/fault
will be displayed.
Corrective Action:
If you receive a Gutter error:
1. Check the alignment of the Jet. Ensure the ink stream in going into the gutter.
2. Listen for a steady vacuum.
3. Check continuity of the gutter sensor to the CPU.
Ink Reservoir Full
Definition:
The Ink Tank level is monitored continuously with 3 level rods to maintain the optimum level of ink. When
the ink level
gets to the “High” level sensing rod, there will be ~1750ml of ink in the tank. This will send
the “Ink Reservoir Full” error/fault and will shut the printer down. This is to prevent ink from spilling out
causing a hazardous condition. The normal operating level is between 600 to 500ml. This allows ample
room to add Make-up to control the viscosity. See Fig 1 below.
