Printhead Storage
Store and transport cartridge as indicated by “this side up” arrow symbol on
packaging.
Cartridge and ink supply must be within operating temperature range before
attempting to prime cartridge with ink and starting to print. When stored at
temperatures below operating range, it may take up to 3 hours for a cartridge
in its packaging to reach operating temperature. NOTE: Additional
packaging will increase time needed to reach operating temperature.
Storage Life: 12 months from date of manufacture (printed on shipping box).
Storage Temperature Range:
Long Term: 14° F to 86° F (-10° C to 30° C)
Short Term: -11° F to 140° F (-25° C to 60° C)
NOTE: Cumulative storage duration above 86° F (30° C)
must not exceed 72 hours.
Humidity Range:
5% to 95% Relative Humidity, non-condensing
Atmospheric Pressure Range:
70 kPa to 106 kPa
Electrostatic Discharge:
8 kV air discharges or 4 kV contact discharges*
*When tested in accordance with IEC 61000-4-2
Printhead Service Life
Projected: 50,000,000 ejections per nozzle. Printhead has a total of 70,400 nozzles (14,080 per color channel.)
Since printing does not use the entire length of Printhead, some nozzles do not fire as often. The most often used
Nozzles will degrade more quickly. Noticing effects of failing nozzles depends partly on the relative position of
those nozzles to each other. In simple terms, number of images printed and amount of ink that will pass through
printhead prior to printhead degradation will depend on make-up of the images printed, operating environment,
servicing, media characteristics (including cleanliness) and other factors.
