About the Ink Cartridge
The ink cartridge for printing is located in the Mailing System and contains fluorescent red
ink that has been tested and approved by the postal service.
The ink cartridge uses ink jet technology. It requires the print head nozzles to be cleaned
regularly to provide a good printing quality. The system performs cleaning automatically or
on your request. You can also clean the heads manually if the automatic cleaning is not
sufficient.
The ink cartridge also contains two print heads that have to be aligned.
If you observe poor print quality (streaked, too light, blurred, etc.),
see Maintaining the Ink Cartridge on page 203 .
