INK SYSTEM
General
CAUTION
The Ink system must never be withdrawn from the
cabinet with the printer running.
The ink system supplies the printhead with ink at the correct pressure
and viscosity. When the jet is stopped, the system also flushes out the
print head with make--up to provide a clean stop and, when the jet is
next switched on, a clean start.
The printer contains a reservoir of printing ink. As ink is used for
printing, it is replaced by fresh ink from a disposable cartridge. The ink
has a solvent base which (like all solvents) is subject to evaporation, and
this, in turn, affects ink viscosity. The electronic system, therefore,
checks the viscosity regularly and keeps it within carefully controlled
limits by adding make--up, supplied from a second reservoir, which is
also supplied by a disposable cartridge.
Ink Circuit
The ink circuit is shown schematically in the following diagram (see pg.
6--17).
Ink supply
. The printing ink is held in a replaceable reservoir, on
which is mounted a manifold carrying a replaceable cartridge.
Make--up is also held in a reservoir (non--replaceable) and has a
disposable make--up cartridge mounted on it.
The ink cartridge is sealed onto the manifold except for two dip tubes
of different lengths extending down from the manifold into the
reservoir. As the ink level falls below the end of the shorter tube, air is
allowed into the cartridge. Fresh ink is then able to drain through the
longer tube into the reservoir until the ink level rises above the end of
the shorter tube. The ink and make--up levels are monitored by level
sensors in each reservoir. If the ink cartridge is not replaced before the
ink falls below a second level, the printer switches off. However, if the
make--up reservoir is empty the machine can still be used, but the
start--stop performance will be impaired. If make--up is not replaced it
will cause the ink viscosity to increase, and print quality to deteriorate.
The printer also indicates when the ink or make--up levels are too high.
