Tools
To display this menu, press the Tools button on the Front Page screen.
●
System Information — displays current status information for the printer.
Maintenance menu:
●
Access Printheads — moves the printhead carriage to the center of the rail for inspection.
●
Perform An Air Purge — purges the printheads with air to clear ink clogs. You can select the
printheads to purge, and whether to perform a Standard or Performance purge (the Performance
purge is more effective but expels more ink).
●
Print Recover Jets Pattern — prints a special pattern designed to recover missing inkjets. After
printing this pattern, the prime bars are printed.
●
Manually Clean Heads — positions the printhead carriage to enable you to manually wipe the
printheads with a lint-free cloth soaked with printhead flush solution. See
Manually clean the
printheads (bi-weekly) on page 71.
●
Print Jet-Out Lines — prints a version of the prime bars in which missing jets that are replaced are
marked with a black square.
●
Change UV Lamp Bulb — moves the carriage to the center of the printer and raises output roller
to allow you to change the bulbs, and allows you to reset the lamp’s elapsed operating time clock
to zero. The printer displays a warning message when the UV lamps have been in service for a
certain period. They should be replaced when they are no longer curing the ink. To view the total
operating time for each lamp, press the Status key on the Front Page, and advance to the page
where this is listed.
●
Clean Bottom of Carriage — cleans the bottom of the carriage between the printheads, where ink
and debris builds up over time.
After the bottom of the carriage is cleaned, the printer repositions the carriage and prompts the
operator to clean the service station wipers. Doing so will help ensure that the wipers will effectively
clean the printheads and avoid pushing debris from cleaning the bottom of the carriage into the ink
jets. See
Clean bottom of carriage (monthly) on page 78 for instructions.
●

corrective actions. It has the following sections:
