Head Unit - After replacement

Caution / 注意
  • After replacing the head unit, do not start the user mode until you exit this menu. If user mode is started by mistake, immediately disconnect the power cable and turn off the power.
    • When the user mode is started in a state where the ink filling is not completed, the nozzle self-diagnosis system detects nozzle missing and performs head cleaning a plurality of times, so that a large amount of ink is consumed.
    • If three consecutive heavy nozzle missing are detected during head cleaning, it is internally determined that the printhead has failed.
  • The sequence ends with error if the consumables run out during the sequence. Make sure to start over if the sequence stopped in the process.
