6.1.1 Periodic Maintenance Items and Product Life
Information
Periodic Maintenance Items
The printer uses sensors and counters to determine when consumable items need to be
replaced. When a consumable part has reached its predetermined end-of-life according
to the corresponding counter, a message appears. See Table 6-1 for parts which require
periodic replacement.
Product Life Information
Table 6-1 shows the product life about the printer body, each mechanism and various
parts. Information regarding to the product life can be checked by the following way.
Panel Setting: “Printer Status Menu”
The amount of ink remaining is indicated on the LCD. (“F*****E” - F = full, E =
empty, and each asterisk * represents a percentage of the total ink.)
Also, the counters which record these values can be initialized by “Maintenance
Mode 2”.
C A U T I O N
Do not perform the counter initialization without replacing the
corresponding parts and checking their operation. Since the
counters for “Waste Ink Life” and “Ink Remaining Quantity”
influence printer operations, do not clear them unnecessarily.
