7 ICE Torus 126 Ink Fill & Prime
7.1 Introduction
Due specification differences between the ICE Torus 126 and ICE Torus 500 printhead, there
are two different fill and priming procedures. Both procedures are described in the following
sections.
Please ensure the correct priming procedure, for the correct ICE Torus variant is followed.
ICE Torus 126 printers are shipped in a “dry” state. In order to function correctly, the ICE
Torus printer requires filling with ink and an initial “prime”, in order to displace any air pockets
within the printhead.
PLEASE NOTE: This procedure is essential to ensure optimum print resolution from the
printer
The following support equipment will be required:-
An empty bottle and/or absorbent material for catching any drained ink.
Recommended – a small piece of 4mm pipe.
