present in the prime pattern. Manual or automatic jet compensation is provided up to 20
jets in each cartridge. Ensure the integrity of the diagonal lines are consistent and
smooth. Clean or replace cartridge if unsatisfactory.
6. Manually Bypassing Cartridge Jets
A manually bypassed jet appears as an 80% filled block
in the prime pattern (see jets at left and right below).
Perform manual jet bypass whenever a jet illustrates
degraded performance (i.e. clogging or fire misdirection).
In the example at right the magenta cartridge is severely
misfiring – the cartridge will most likely need to be
replaced.
