Tools To display this menu, press the Tools button on the Front Page screen. • Turn UV Lamps On/Off - enables you to turn on or off the UV lamps manually instead of automatically when the printer detects a print job. For example, you may want to turn on the lamps to allow them to warm up before sending a print job from the RIP. • System Information - displays current status information for the printer. Maintenance • Perform An Air Purge - purges the printheads with air, as specified under Purge Type (see page 5-12). • Print Recover Jets Pattern - prints a special pattern designed to recover missing inkjets. After printing this pattern, the prime bars are printed. • Access Printheads - moves the printhead carriage to the service end for inspection or cleaning. • Print Jet-Out Lines - prints a version of the prime bars (see page 5-3), in which missing jets that are replaced are marked with a black square. • Print Media Skew Lines - continuously prints a swath of parallel lines across the width of the media, in alternating directions, until you stop the print. If the swaths are not parallel to each other, the media is skewed (not feeding straight). If there is a noticeable space between swaths, or if they overlap, the media advance should be calibrated. • Reset Reservoir Filters - after you replace the filters, select this option to reset the ink counts to zero. See "Replace Ink Filters" on page 6-15 for instructions. • Reset UV Lamp Hours - resets 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. 5-14 Menus
