Prime Ink System
WARNINGS: (1) Protective equipment such as gloves and glasses must be worn when
this procedure is carried out. Physical contact with printer ink or
make-up can cause skin or eye damage.
(2) The print head must be placed in a wash station, or positioned over a
beaker made of a conducting material and securely connected to
earth (ground) in case the jet is misaligned out of the gutter. The
electrostatic charges on the ink drops used for printing can cause a
fire hazard.
The ink system must be primed before the printer can be used for the first time.
Before starting this procedure, ensure that the ink and make-up levels are at least half full. This
will be indicated by yellow or green make-up and ink level icons on the information bar on the
TouchPanel screen, see page 4-5.
To run the ink priming wizard:
(1) Fit the print head into a wash station, or place a beaker made of a conducting material and
connected to earth (ground) underneath the print head.
(2) On the TouchPanel, select Home > Setup > Wizards > Ink priming wizard.
(3) Select Start.
(4) Follow the on screen instructions.
(5) The ink jet alignment must now be checked. For an i-Pulse or i-Pulse Duo print head follow
the procedure on page 5-19.
End of procedure.
