7.16 Draining the Ink from the Main Ink Tank
¡
If the main ink tank too full fault occurs, the touch panel keys become inoperative.
Remove the main ink tank drain tube as shown below to drain the ink in the tank by
approximately 50cc. After that, return it to its original position.
¡Before replacing the JP-Y37 ink (or 6 months after the ink is replenished), perform this
operation and make sure that the ink can be drained. If the ink cannot be drained,
execute the long-term shutdown process, referring to "7.15 Long-term Shutdown", to
remove any accumulated sediment. If the sediment cannot be removed, replace the
main ink tank: When replacing the main ink tank, contact your local distributor.
¡
After the plug is returned to its original position upon completion of ink drainage, perform ink
recharging as directed in Section 7.5, Ink replacement .
If you start operation without refilling the ink, a "Replenishment Time-out" fault will
occur. When this happens, cancel the error using the Clear key and then turn on
the "Ink Refill".
If ink is accidentally spilt, wipe it up promptly with wiping paper or something
similar.
In addition, do not close the maintenance cover until you are sure that the wiped
portion has completely dried.
