Filling The Ink Bottles - Epson Fast T-Jet 3 PLUS User Manual

Filling the Ink Bottles

When initially setting up your T-Jet3 PLUS, we
recommend fi lling the CMYK ink bottles to
approximately the ¾ mark (the Full line being
100%) and the White ink bottle approximately
½ full.
This is due to the different effects that
elevation has on ink fl ow. Certain elevations
may necessitate the level of ink staying below
the bottles' full line. This is only a suggested, starting point. It will be up to you to
determine the best ink level for your elevation through testing and use.
As you perform initial test prints, ink can be added as needed
to correct for ink starvation. DO NOT OVERFILL- Once the ink
has reached the Full Line STOP. Do not fi ll ink past this mark. If ink
starvation continues, raise the Adjustable Shelf as needed.
C C h h a a n n g g i i n n g g I I n n k k B B r r a a n n d d s s Changing Ink Brands
Your T-Jet3 PLUS is shipped with FastINK Textile Ink. With a normal inkjet printer,
it is a very common practice to change from the manufacturer's brand of ink
to third party inks. However, this can result in serious issues when using specially
formulated textile inks. All textile inks are NOT created equal and they must not
be mixed. Should you decide to try another brand of textile ink in your printer,
before doing so you MUST fl ush out the entire Bulk Ink System using a special
fl ushing solution.
Failure to perform this process can result in a mixture of the two brands, creating
a chunky mess that might be called severe "cholesterol" in the ink tubes. In fact,
this mixture will permanently clog the Print Head.
for any damage to your printer or replacement of the Print Head should you
use another manufacturer's ink. If you do experience problems with another
manufacturer's ink you must contact THAT manufacturer for any available
remedies.
