QS Series Basic Operator's Guide
1 Inspect the face of the jet packs regularly using a low-
intensity (non-UV) flashlight.
Do not use fluorescent lights near the jet packs.
Fluorescent light contains UV light which will cure the
ink.
2 Using a clean, EFI-approved clean room free wipe soaked
in SCAQMD maintenance fluid, remove the ink residue
by gently wiping the face of each jet pack on a regular
basis (every two to three hours).
When wiping the jet packs’ faces, be gentle and wipe in
one direction only. Do not rub the jet too vigorously.
Keeping the jet’s edges clean will help prevent debris from
contaminating the jet pack’s nozzles.
Jet test patterns
The jet test is an easy way to verify that all jets and all the
jets’ nozzles are operating. A test pattern prints one segment
for each of the jet packs, in the order the jet packs are in the
carriage plate. This helps identify which, if any, jet packs are
missing nozzles.
Jet test properties
If a job is selected when a jet test is performed, the jet test
will take on the properties of the selected job. When no job
is selected, the jet test uses the default properties. For
example, if you have a job selected that uses the post
shutter mode, the jet test will also use the post shutter
mode.
