ZPrinter 350 / ZPrinter 450 User Manual ZPrinter 350 and ZPrinter 450 Overview
Print Head - There is one HP11 Print Head for the ZPrinter 350. When a new HP11 print head is installed,
the printer runs an automatic purge cycle to clean the print head of its ink and to prepare it for dispensing
binder. Note: Only HP11 model C4810A Black cartridges can be used in the ZPrinter 350/450.
For the ZPrinter 450, there is also a color HP 57 print head.
Print Head Contacts - The contact points on a print head cartridge that match up with the Pogo Pins.
Purge - Process of removing ink from the HP11 print head to prepare it for dispensing binder.
Service Station - Cleans the print head jets to remove powder residue during printing. It is extremely
important to clean the Service Station after every build to remove residue buildup that gets left on the Ser-
vice Station during a build. If the Service Station is not clean, your print head will not get properly cleaned
and this will result in shortened print head life.
Waste Tray - Absorbs the binder waste and will require changing only when you are prompted to in ZPrint.
Located at the bottom rear of the printer after removing the rear panel.
