Priming The Ink Delivery Lines - ENCAD 215360-01 Quick Start Manual

Priming the ink delivery lines

After filling the ink reservoirs and installing the cartridges, you will need to
prime each of the ink delivery lines to establish ink flow through the lines to the
ink cartridges. An ink primer is included with your printer. Be sure it has batter-
ies in it before continuing. (Refer to the Reference Guide on the System CD
for information on installing batteries.)
Your printer is equipped with shutoff valves for the ink delivery lines on the
carriage. When the valve is pushed to the upright position, the ink delivery lines
are closed at the carriage. This maintains negative pressure while connecting
the ink delivery lines.
Note: When priming more than one color of ink, be sure to thoroughly
wipe any excess ink from the ink primer before working with the next color
to avoid the possibility of contamination.
! Caution: Never manually move the carriage. Injury can result from
unintentional carriage movement.
