Maintenance of Ink Cartridges
Ensure the following procedures are carried out without fail. The ink ingredients have a tendency to separate
and settle. Metallic silver ink is particularly prone to separation; if left, such separated ingredients will dry and
harden, and this may cause a malfunction.
 Always gently shake a new cartridge before installing.
 Everyday before the start of operations, remove only the metallic silver ink cartridge, gently
shake and reinstall.
