TOC
This number can also be used to calculate total number of
prints you can get from one cartridge and also ink cost per
label. Use the following formula:
Prints Remaining X 100 / Percentage of Ink Remaining = Total
Prints from a Full Cartridge.
In the example above 300 X 100 / 83 = 361 prints from a full
cartridge. Use the cost of the ink cartridge divided by the total
labels from a full cartridge to receive cost per print.
Clean/Purge
If it has been more than 48 hours since your last print or if
your print quality has deteriorated with bands or lines it is
recommended that you clean the cartridge. This is done
by clicking the Clean/Purge button. The Clean Purge is
performed as follows:
Note: You will be prompted to load media of 4"x 4" (101.6 mm x 101.6mm)
or larger, into the printer. If you have stock of this size
or larger, simply click OK. If not see Section 2I for instructions on
loading a test sheet to complete the purge print.
The printer will print a purge pattern where swaths of each
color are printed to clean the jets of the cartridge. A series of
diagonal lines are printed in each color of the cartridge. By
examining this pattern you can tell if the cartridge is firing all
jets or if the cartridge is dirty and requires further cleaning.
While the blocks of color may not print solidly, it is important
that the diagonal lines be continuous. Repeat this process until
all diagonal lines print without breaks.
Change Cartridge
Click the Change Cartridge button to move the cartridge into
position for easy access for replacement. For more information
on this, see Section 2D.
