2. Carriage lock operation by the Change lever
Unlike the previous printer (Stylus COLOR 680), this printer does not have the
Carriage lock lever with the Wiper.
Instead of the Carriage lock lever, the Change lever is set to the front side of the
printer while the CR unit is in the CR home position.
(As for the detailed mechanism for setting the Change lever, refer to Figure 2-8

2.1.6 Ink Sequence
Initial ink charge
After the printer is purchased and the power is turned on for the first time, the
printer must perform the initial ink charge to charge the ink inside the ink cavity.
When the initial ink charge is completed properly, the printer releases the flag
inside the EEPROM. The Stylus PHOTO 810/820 takes 80 seconds to complete
the initial ink charge sequence and consumes about 1/10 of the brand-new black
ink cartridge & about 1/8 of the brand-new color ink cartridge. If the power is
turned off during the initial ink charge, the CL1' will be performed at next power
on timing.
Manual Cleaning
The Stylus PHOTO 810/820 provides four types of manual cleaning to clean air
bubbles, clogged ink with viscosity or foreign substances.
The following manual CL can be performed by the control panel operation, the
printer driver utility and the Adjustment program.
