PRE-INKING XF NEOPRENE INK ROLLS
3- Using a round shaft or screwdriver, remove the roll from
the container. Roll the ink roll across a clean piece of
paper or cardboard to remove the excess ink.
Note: Inks will stain clothing, furniture, carpeting and your hands. Rubber gloves should be worn during the following
procedures.
1- Remove the dry roll from the plastic bag. Pour ink into a
clean container large enough to accommodate the size
of the ink roll.
2- Place the roll on it’s side into the container. Using your
finger tips, press down firmly on the side of the roll.
Continue to press down on the roll while rotating it in
the container. Flip the roll over in the container and
repeat the process until all of the ink is absorbed.
As you press down on the ink roll you are forcing the air out of
the roll material which allows the ink to be absorbed.
It is important to the performance of the printer that the ink
roll is fully saturated but not dripping wet.
For a 1-1/8” face roll pour approximately 4 ozs. of ink into the
container, for a 2” face roll pour approximately 8 ozs.

The initial inking of any dry roll is critical to the preformance of
the Printer.
The ink roll must be manually pre-inked prior to use.
If you received a dry ink roll with your printer,
follow the inking instructions below to insure that your ink roll is
properly inked before installing it on your Printer.
If you received a pre-inked ink roll with your printer
, skip this procedure and go to the next page for instructions
