Imprinter maintenance The ink cartridges, ink blotter strips, and ink cartridge carrier used in the
imprinter will need replacing occasionally.
Imprinting problems If you are having problems imprinting on scanned documents:
• Verify that the ink cartridge is not empty. The ink bladder inside the cartridge
is flat when it is empty.
• Make sure that the ink cartridge is properly installed in the imprinter.
• Make sure that the ink cartridge is located in the correct position
for imprinting.
• Make sure that the ink cartridge carrier is properly seated in its
positioning slot.
• Verify that all imprinter connectors are securely fastened and that the
imprinter cables are not folded or creased.
Expected life of imprinter
components
• Imprinter ink cartridge: approximately 750,000 non-bold characters
per cartridge
• Ink blotter strips: replace as necessary when soiled
• Ink cartridge carrier: approximately 500,000 pages
When the imprinter
is not in use
When the imprinter is not being used, place the ink cartridge on its side so that
ink does not drip down on the blotter strips.
Replacing an ink cartridge Refer to “Installing an ink cartridge” in this chapter for information about
replacing an empty ink cartridge.
Purchase ink cartridges from an office supply retailer near you.
