Examine Weekly for build-up of dust or debris, but daily in dusty or contaminated conditions.

Clean or replace the air filter

Clean the air filter every week. If the printer operates in dirty conditions, you must clean the filter every day. You must replace the air filter when a new service module is fitted.

To clean or replace the filter:

1 Loosen the thumbscrews and remove the access panel on the right side of the printer.

2 Use the nylon tab to remove the filter element. (Pressure can be necessary to release the filter from the housing.)

3 Gently hit the filter to remove dirt, or use an air line to blow air through the filter in the opposite direction to the normal flow.

4 Check that the filter is clean and no dirt is visible in the filter housing. Replace the filter if you cannot clean it.

NOTE: Before you perform a Nozzle Flush, refer to the instructions below or on the Main Menu screen (Home > Main Menu > Help > Nozzle Flush).

The printer automatically cleans the printhead, but if necessary you can use the Nozzle Flush sequence to clean the nozzle of dry ink that can obstruct or stop the ink jet.

A Nozzle Flush uses the pump pressure to create a flow of solvent through the nozzle. The solvent returns to the ink system through the gutter.

NOTE: The Nozzle Flush option is not available unless the jet is stopped. Touch the Stop Jet button on the Home screen to stop the jet.

1 Make sure that the printer status is ‘Idle’.

2 Put a container under the printhead to collect solvent.

3 On the Maintenance screen, touch the Nozzle Flush button to display the Nozzle Flush screen.
