Page 96: Printer Mechanical System
Chapter 2 2.3 Printer Mechanical System 2.3.1 Outline 2.3.1.1 Outline 0020-5485 The mechanical components of the printer can be broadly divided into an ink passage and a paper path. The ink passage consists mainly of the ink tank unit [1] and the printhead mounted on the carriage unit [2], the purge unit [3] and the maintenance cartridge [4]. Its functions are to supply, circulate and suck inks and more.
Page 97: Ink Passage
Chapter 2 2.3.2 Ink Passage 2.3.2.1 Ink Passage 2.3.2.1.1 Overview of Ink Passage 0020-5486 The ink passage houses the ink tank, printhead, caps, maintenance cartridge, waste ink collector, ink tubes interconnecting the mechanical units, suction pump driv- en mainly for sucking inks and so on. Its functions include supplying, circulating and sucking inks. The ink passage (per color) is schematically shown below, along with the ink flow.
Page 98: Ink Tank Unit
Chapter 2 2.3.2.2 Ink Tank Unit 2.3.2.2.1 Structure of Ink Tank Unit 0020-5487 a) Ink tanks The ink level in each ink tank is memorized in EEPROM attached to the tank and is detected as a dot count on the basis of the EEPROM information. When an electrode attached to a hollow needle detects no continuity, it displays a message reporting that the ink tank is nearly empty.
Page 99 Chapter 2 e) Subtank The subtank installed under each ink tank complements the work of the ink tank, agitating the ink in the tank. If the ink tank runs out of the ink while printing, the ink stored in the subtank is available, allowing the ink tank to be replaced without having to stop printing. f) Ink supply valves Located halfway between each subtank and the ink tube, the ink supply valve prevents ink leaks that may occur when the ink tube on the ink tank is released during replacement of the ink tank.
