release it. A distinct sound can be heard when the Prime sequence starts, allow the

seconds to complete.
12. Make a test print and verify that a satisfactory printout is produced. If the quality of print is
poor refer to and follow the procedure for “Purging Trapped Air” on page 29.
It is recommended that the Gutter Clean Interval is used. This ensures that the gutter at the
bottom of the PTM’s nozzles is kept clean and avoids ink build-up.
The Gutter Clean Interval is set from within the PCM’s Configuration menu. First select
Print Heads, then the relevant Marker, and finally its Advanced options. For further
information refer to the PCM’s Technical Manual.
