1.1.1 Notes on ink and makeup ink
1.1.1-1 Ink and makeup ink replenishment
The printer employs an automatic ink/makeup ink replenishment system. While the
printer is operating, the ink tank and the makeup ink tank, respectively, automatically
supply ink and makeup ink to the ink main tank at regular intervals. When the ink or
makeup ink replenisher level becomes too low, an alarm is issued. In such an instance,
perform replenishment without delay. (For the replenishment procedures, see
Section 6.3 in the Instruction Manual, "Ink Replenishment", and Section 6.4,
"Makeup Ink Replenishment".)
1.1.1-2 Periodic ink replacement
For replacing procedure, see Section 6.5 (Instruction Manual), "Ink Replacement".
z While the IJ printer ink circulates for operations, it reacts with atmospheric air
elements and deteriorates with time. Therefore, it needs periodic replacement. The
table below furnishes a guide for determining the proper replacement intervals.
However, since the proper replacement intervals vary with the printer operating
environmental conditions (temperature, humidity, dust, etc.), determine the best
replacement intervals depending on the results of printing and replace all ink within
the printer with new ink, when necessary.
