HP Latex 300 Series Service Manual

The purpose of this test is to verify which Ink Cartridges are valid for the purge process and their current
available ink level. Some Ink Cartridges may not be able to be accessed (unable to read the Acumen) if
previously there had been a failure (faulty, broken bag, and so on).
Procedure
1. Go to Diagnostic test > 3. Ink System Menu > 3.2 Check Ink Supplies.
2. The printer will start to initialize the test.
If there is a failure at this point, the front panel will display system error code 01.0:10: see
SE Code:
01.0:10 – Engine PCA electronics error. The main Engine PCA component is not responding on page 70.
If there is a problem while reading the Acumen, the front panel will display one of the system error
codes:
●
SE Code: 01.2:10 – ISS1 PCA problem on page 70
●
SE Code: 01.0:10 – Engine PCA electronics error. The main Engine PCA component is not
responding on page 70
If there is a failure at this point, the front panel will display the message “Replace failing ink supplies
after running this utility”.
3. Once the Ink Supplies information is obtained, it is displayed. Press any key to exit.
If any part of the Acumen information is invalid, the front panel will display an error.
4. Once the process is completed, OK will be displayed on the front panel.
3.3 Broken Bag Recovery Menu
Description
The purpose of the menus here is to recover the printer if a broken bag in an Ink Cartridge is detected. A
broken bag will stop the printer from functioning and will need to be fixed and cleared of the error before the
printer can continue printing normally. If ink leaks from the broken bag and leaves the confines of the ink
cartridge, this error is potentially damaging to various parts of the printer.
Procedure
In order to remove the printer from this system error status and recover the printer to working order the test
must be performed in the following order:
●
3.3.1 Clean Air Tubes
●
3.3.2 Recover Broken bag
●
3.3.3 Refill Ink Tubes
The following procedures and menu selections enable the engineer to clear leaked ink from the pressurized
air system in the ISS and to remove air bubbles (caused by the broken bag) from the Ink Tubes which can
damage the Printheads.
To perform the following procedures the Broken Bag Fixing Tools kit is required (part number B4H70-67131).
