How to Bleed an Ink Filter
How to Bleed an Ink Filter
Introduction
Bleeding air trapped in the ink filters is a strategy to avoid persistent nozzle dropout. You will be
notified by the printer when it is necessary to bleed a filter. Although, you can select Done or
Postpone even if the task is not complete, it is in your best interest to follow the recommended
schedule. If you don't bleed the filters you may need to place a service call to remove
contamination from the system. However, the preferred preventative maintenance method is to
bleed the ink filters when alerted by the printer.
When to do
New ink filters contain air that must be released. Also after a period of use all ink filters will
contain air. Follow the schedule for bleeding ink filters indicated in the Maintenance Tasks tab.
Before you begin
The filters are bled using a 60 ml syringe. If bleeding after an ink bag change, let the ink fill finish
before bleeding the filter. The filters should be bled while the printer is idle; that is, there should
be no active printing and the ink pumps should not be running.
How to Bleed an Ink Filter
If you have just changed an ink filter, steps 1 to 3 are not necessary. They are needed only if you
have come to this section just to bleed an ink filter.
Procedure
1.
Disengage the ink bag from the coupler for the filter you will replace. To do this press the release
tab on the left side of the quick-release ink bag coupler and then pull it out to disconnect the ink
bag.
2.
Push on the top the ink filter enclosure door and it will flip forward to open and provide access to
the filters.
