6.1.2.2 Service Call
Ink is consumed also for cleaning and flushing operations. When the ink is used for clean-
ing and flushing operations, the ink is drained to the Waste Ink Pads (Ink Waste Tray Assy)
via the Pump. The ink flushed outside of the boundary of paper when carrying out the bor
-
derless printing is conducted through the Front Paper Guide Waste Ink Pad, and drained to
the Lower Paper Guide Waste Ink Pad Assy.
The amount of the waste ink is stored as the waste ink counter into the EEPROM. When the
waste ink counter has reached the limit of the absorbing capability of the Waste Ink Pads,
the maintenance request error is displayed. This printer takes the ink evaporation amount
into consideration, therefore the counter limit differs depending on how often printing is
made.
When the maintenance request error appears, replace the Waste ink pads (Ink Waste Tray
Assy) with a new one and reset the waste ink counter using the Adjustment program. If the
waste ink counter is close to its limit, recommend that the Waste ink pads (Ink Waste Tray
Assy) will be replaced with new one. This is because the “Maintenance request error” will
may occur after returning the repaired product to the customer.
