5-1 Replacing the Ink Cartridges

If ink runs out, replace the ink cartridges.
Be sure to use genuine ECO-SOL INK cartridges from Roland DG Corp.

Care and Handling of Ink Cartridges

Give attention to the following points when handling ink cartridges.

Replacing with New Ink Cartridges

Before you attempt to replace an ink cartridge, check the following points.

• The machine is switched on.

• Operation is stopped or paused.

Also, always be sure to gently shake the ink cartridge before you install it. Installing it without shaking it first may result
in unstable colors during printing.

Never attempt to disassemble.

Never drop or allow to fall. The impact from a fall may cause damage, making the cartridge unusable.

Store unopened in a well-ventilated location where the temperature is from -20ºC (-40ºF) to 40ºC (104ºF).

Once an ink cartridge has been installed, never remove it until the ink has been used up, except when moving the machine.
Frequent insertion and removal may cause air to enter the ink tube, resulting in dot drop-out or other problems in printing
quality.

Removing or inserting an ink cartridge while operation is in progress may cause air to get inside the cartridge, resulting in poor
image quality.

Never attempt to install any ink other than an ECO-SOL INK cartridge. Doing so may result in malfunction or faulty operation.

After removing an ink cartridge, never allow the machine to stand with the ink-cartridge port remaining empty -- install a new
ink cartridge immediately. Failure to do so may result in clogging of the heads.
