LATERWhen replacement of the ink cartridge becomes necessary while
printing is in progress, this setting determines whether printing
continues or pauses.
This setting is used when the ink cartridge cannot be changed immedi-
ately during printing, such as during unattended operation at night.
[LATER] causes printing to continue without pause even if ink refilling
becomes necessary. Printing continues with the small amount of ink
remaining, so the printed image may become faint as the ink runs out.
In general, it should possible to perform about 1 m
2
(10 ft
2
) of printing
once this message appears, although the actual varies widely according
to the amount of ink needed for the particular image. Printing is
continued only for the data currently being printed. Operation stops
after one image is output.
[PROMPT] causes operation to pause immediately when the ink
cartridge needs to be changed. Printing is resumed by replacing the
cartridge and pressing the [PAUSE] key. Please note, however, that the
colors of an image in progress may no longer be perfectly matched if
the unit is allowed to remain paused for two or three hours before
resuming printing.
[FILL INK] : Refills the printing heads with ink. Normally there is no
need to do this, because refilling is automatic.
[PUMP UP] : Drains ink from the printing heads.
[HEAD WASH] : This washes the printing heads with optionally
available cleaning cartridges. For more information, see "3-7 When
Moving the Unit... ."
[CHANGE INK SET] : Performs the [HEAD WASH] and [FILL INK]
operations.
This is used when switching the ink type. Before running this, choose
the type of ink to be used after the change.
For more information, see "3-4 Changing the Type of Ink."
