Mixing the Ink by Shaking the Pouch Tray
If ink components precipitate in the ink pouch, colors may be uneven (unevenness in printed colors). If
colors are uneven, remove the pouch trays, and then shake them gently.
So that the ink mixes well, shake the pouch tray horizontally 50 times (about 20 seconds) with a stroke
length of around 5 cm (2 in.) from each end of the tray.
Shake the pouch trays once per week.
To prevent ink precipitation, you can make the machine periodically display a message prompting you to mix the ink.

MEMO
• Do not remove the ink pouches. Shake the entire pouch tray. Removing the ink pouches may lead to the ink leaking.
• Before shaking, wipe off any ink from around the mouth of the ink pouch. If you do not wipe off the ink, it may
splatter when you shake the pouch tray.
• When you have finished mixing the ink, reinsert the pouch tray immediately. Taking time to reattach the ink car-
tridge will adversely affect the ink path.
IMPORTANT
If uneven color issues are not resolved even after shaking the pouch trays to mix the ink, perform [Ink Re-
newal].
