Ink
You must use only Lomond-compatible ink in your Lomond printer. Lomond ink cartridges
carry information about the ink they hold. This information is used by the printer to optimise
printing on various paper types.

Sourcing new ink
Contact your supplier to source new ink tanks.

Ink storage and handling
Lomond inks do not require special storage and handling. Common recommendations are
listed below, but your particular location may require further considerations.
•
Do not expose ink to freezing 0 ºC (32 ºF) temperatures.
•
Do not expose ink to temperatures higher than 60 ºC (140 ºF).
•
Do not drop ink tanks.
•
Allow ink to acclimatise to ambient temperature before using in your printer.
•
Replacing ink tanks
New ink tanks may be supplied in a blister pack as shown in the
Ink tanks
section on page 14
or in individual ink tank packaging.
You do not need to switch off your printer to replace ink cartridges.
To replace the ink tanks in your printer:
1.
Ensure all Print commands have terminated and the printer is idle.
2.
Lift the ink tank access cover and the four ink tank covers to reveal the ink tanks in their
slots (see the printer
Internal view
on page 12).
3.
Carefully remove the ink tanks from their slots.
DO NOT switch off your printer if any of your ink tanks have been removed. Doing so may
compromise ink delivery in your printer.
4.
Follow the instructions in
Installing the ink tanks
on page 18 from step 2.
Always consider the environment when disposing of ink tanks. Follow your supplier instructions
to ensure you are conforming to local regulations.
