The Blotting Station
4.3
The blotting station is located in the left side of the gantry opposite to the capping
station. Blotting is required to remove excess ink and/or solvent from the printhead's
nozzle plates.
Changing the Blotting cloth
4.3.1
The blotting cloth is supplied in a roll. When the blotting cloth requires replacing, a
message is displayed for the operator on the control panel.
To change the blotting cloth:
1.
Leave the blotting station in its default raised position. Remove the old roll of blotting
cloth and discard.
Important: Do not re-use Blotting cloth as this may cause improper blotting resulting
in overspraying and poor quality prints.
2.
Remove the old cardboard core and save it for use in Step 4.
