The table below shows PF/Pump motor rotational direction and pump system operation.
PF/Pump motor rotational direction Pump unit operation
Clockwise(CW)
forward rotation 1)Released from the pressured pump
2)Head cleaner reset
3)Carriage lock reset
Counterclockwise(CCW)
backward rotation
1)Move to the state that pump is pressured
2)Head cleaner set
3)Carriage lock set
The figure below shows the pump operation at clockwise and counterclockwise rotations.
In the ink absorptive operation such as cleaning, flushing initial ink charge except for printing operation,
ink in the ink cartridge drains to the waste ink absorber(pad) through the cap by the pump unit drive.
In case of printing and flushing, ink is popped out by the PZT in the print head, but in case of
absorptive operation such as cleaning and initial ink charge, ink absorption is performed
only by the pump drive without PZT drive after the head surface is adhered to the cap.
The next page explains cap mechanism and relation between printer operation and cap mechanism.
