Lubricate the Carriage Assembly
The Carriage Assembly needs to be lubricated occasionally so that it can slide easily along the Slider Rod.
1. Using the Front Panel, in the Printheads menu, select “Replace printheads now”. The Carriage Assembly
will move to the center of the printer.
2. Open the Window and apply a few drops of oil (bottle of oil can be found in the Maintenance Kit) to the
pads on either side of the Carriage Assembly.
3. Apply a few drops of oil directly to the Slider Rod on either side of the Carriage Assembly.
Scheduled maintenance
In some segments of the printer market, the customer tends to print more than the maximum number of
prints that the throughput allows, exceeding by far the limit of the design. When this happens the customer
runs into print quality problems and continuous printer failures.
The purpose of scheduled preventive maintenance is to avoid these failures - ensuring a good performance
during all the product life.
