LX2000/LX1000 Vacuum Tube Maintenance Kit and Ink Pad Replacement
The LX2000 has a vacuum system to carry excess ink overspray into the ink saturation pads. Depending
on how often the printer is used, some ink can build up inside the tube opening and eventually block the
vacuum tube opening. Ink Pads can also become saturated over time and should be replaced.
Tube Cleaning Maintenance Interval: Perform this maintenance every 10,000 prints or at the first sign
of any ink build up on the internal mechanism. If you start to see a magenta fog on any of the internal
components, this maintenance should be done regardless of how many prints have been sent to the
printer.
Ink Pad Maintenance Interval: 50,000 prints
Maintenance Kit Part Number: 661380 – Purchase on www.primera.com
Kit includes: Ink pad tray with 2x saturation pads, 1x clear tube to clean the vacuum tube opening.
1. Open the Cover
2. Locate the black Ink capture bin.
3. Lift the latch (1) and pull the cover forward (2).
