Creating Discs on a Mac 41
You will see the Color Ink Level is displayed. The Color Ink
Level represents the lowest color in your cartridge. For
instance, if your cartridge has 80% cyan 50% yellow and 65%
magenta ink remaining, the level reported would be 50%. You
will also see the following buttons:
Clean Cartridge
A cartridge that sits idle in the Publisher for a period of time
may start to experience some drying of ink in the tiny nozzles
that make up the print head. Clicking the Clean Cartridge
button will cause the Publisher to pick a disc and place in into
the printer tray. The Publisher will then print a simple pattern
that will flush ink through the nozzles. The test pattern will
also show you if any nozzles are clogged. In the pattern you
will see some diagonal lines which should be continuous;
breaks in those lines indicate a clogged nozzle. Please note
that it may require more than one cleaning to fully clear all
nozzles. If the nozzles are not fully clear after a few cleaning
prints, it may be necessary to remove the cartridge and
actually clean the print head by gently blotting the nozzles
with a moist cloth or paper towel and replace it in the
Publisher. See Section 5-B.
Change Cartridge
If you need to change the cartridge, it is a good idea to use the
Change Cartridge button in the Configuration Utility. This
ensures the most accurate tracking of ink levels. To change a
cartridge, click the Change Cartridge button. The cartridge
holder will move to the center of the Publisher to make it easi-
er to install the cartridge. Lift the top cover and install the
cartridge as described in Section 2 of this manual. You will
be prompted to let the system know whether or not you are
installing a new or used color cartridge. Once installed, click
the OK button and the system will update your cartridge
levels.
Alignment Calibration Print
The Cartridge Alignment prints a test print and then
automatically scans the print to configure your printer for
bidirectional printing. It is important to perform this calibra-
tion every time you change a cartridge. If you forget to per-
form this calibration you will be prompted to do so before your
first print from the new cartridge.
