Basic Printer Operations Daily Startup To ensure the functioning or substitution of all inkjets, and optimal output quality, follow this procedure daily: 1. Wake the printer from Sleep mode. 2. Press the Purge key on the control panel to purge the printheads. Follow the instructions on the control panel screen. The printer will detect when you open and close the endcap access door, and remove and reinstall the drip tray, to determine when you have completed certain steps in the procedure. Note When closing the access door on the user endcap cabinet, the pneumatic supports will pull the door closed when the door is lowered past the horizontal position. Hold on to the door until it is closed to stop it from slamming closed. 3. Clean the media drive belt. See "Clean the Media Drive Belt and Encoder" on page 6-4. Note Failure to clean the media drive belt daily will allow any ink on the belt to continue to cure, making later cleaning more difficult. 4. Press the Prime Bars key on the control panel to print the Prime Bars. Each prime bar is a set of horizontal lines printed by the jets in one printhead, starting with the black head 1 toward the service end of the carriage, and ending with yellow head 16 toward the user end. Every horizontal line in each prime bar is printed by a single inkjet nozzle. • If all jets (indicated by a printed line) are working, the printer is ready to print. 1-6 Basic Printer Operations
