10.3 Trouble shooting tasks
10.3.1 Cleaning the ink cartridge
Fig. 23: Cleaning the ink cartridge
To be done by instructed person.
To be done if print quality deteriorates during printing or after
extended period of non-use.
During printing the print quality may deteriorate due to dust and ink
vapour. In this case, wipe the nozzle plate of the ink cartridge with
a moist, lint-free cloth. The water in the moist cloth dissolves the
ink residues and cleans the nozzles and the ink channels.
CAUTION!
Material damage due to incorrect cleaning!
Incorrect cleaning may scratch the nozzles of the
ink cartridges, causing blurred print images since
the scratches around the nozzles divert the ink.
Therefore:
– Use only lint-free and absorbent cloths to clean
the cartridges.
– Moisten cleaning cloths with water.
– Wipe slowly without pressure.
1.
Remove the ink cartridge from the holder.
Chapter 7.2.2, Page 48
2.
Hold the ink cartridge with the nozzle plate facing downward.
3.
Slowly wipe across the nozzle plate in the direction of the
arrow, using a moistened and lint-free cloth.
Do not shake the ink cartridge!
4.
Re-insert the ink cartridge in the holder.
Chapter 7.2.2, Page 48
NOTE!
A small amount of water may mix with the ink in the
channels, rendering the first print a bit grey.
