3: Pre-Print Checks
Before beginning a print job, your printer will perform a series of system checks to ensure that it is

making sure all of your ink cartridges are in a ready state, and checking your power and print-head
voltages to ensure that they are all optimal before printing.

detected the table will stop at the point of the obstruction and allow you to make the necessary
adjustments. Often an obstruction occurs when there is a wrinkle in the garment you are printing on,
or when the print table is too high. Warning: Turning the Obstruction Detector off, could result in
damage to your print-heads.
Cartridge Check: Before printing a job your Ri 3000 or Ri 6000 printer will make sure all six of your
cartridges are in a ready state. The printer will make sure all of the carts are inserted and have plenty
of ink to complete the print. Additionally, the printer will make sure none of the cartridges have
expired and that each color is inserted into the correct slot. The printer will not begin printing unless
