Roland TrueVIS VG2-540 - When Uneven Color Issues Occur with White Ink; Damper Cleaning Method

Damper Cleaning Method
If uneven color issues with white ink are not resolved even aer shaking the pouch trays to mix the ink, perform
"damper cleaning." Uneven colors refers to the symptom of printed colors being uneven (such as the color density
being inconsistent) even when the same data is printed with the same sengs.
Damper cleaning can be used to stabilize the printed colors by agitang the ink.
IMPORTANT
• Damper cleaning consumes a lot of ink, and overly frequent use may damage the print heads themselves. Avoid performing this
operaon more than necessary.
• When you perform damper cleaning, replace the LcLmLkW ink with a new ink pouch. If the ink runs out during cleaning, a "CLEAN-
ING ERROR" will occur and cleaning will stop.
P. 303「CLEANING ERROR」
• The ink pouch that you have removed can sll be used in operaons other than damper cleaning (such as prinng).
