H.6 Stopping Print and Shutting
Down
H.6.1 Aims
• To show the difference between stopping print and stopping the jet
• To emphasise that the 4900 printer is a completely automatic machine
that requires minimum intervention
H.6.2 Key Points
• [F1] stops the printing, but the jet continues to run
• The [stop] key starts a full shutdown sequence
• The full shutdown sequence stops the jet, cleans the printhead, and
leaves the printer in a condition ready for a clean startup next time
• The [stop] key is the recommended method for shutting down the
printer
• The rear power switch must only be used in the event of an emergency
H.6.3 Activities
Refer to ‘To stop printing’ in the Simply the Linx 4900 pocket guide.
Invite a trainee to demonstrate the [F1] function key to stop print, and the
[start] key to restart the print.
Point out how the options change in the CURRENT MESSAGE screen
when the [F1] key is pressed.
Demonstrate to the trainees that when printing is stopped, the jet continues
to run. (Emphasise the importance of wearing safety glasses during this
operation.)
Refer to ‘To shutdown and switch off’ in the Simply the Linx 4900 pocket
guide.
Invite a trainee to shut down the printer and note how the message changes
in the Status Line. Observe the AUTO POWER DOWN screen.
