Preventing Sedimentation in Inks

The precipitation of the ingredients in the ink disables printing in normal color. So that the ink mixes well, shake the ink cartridge horizontally with a stroke length of around 5 cm (2 in.) from each end of the ink cartridge.

Shake the ink cartridges:
  • All inks: When replaced with a new product.
  • White ink: Each day (before starting the day's operations).

    Remove the white ink cartridge, shake it 50 times (about 20 seconds), and then reinsert this cartridge.

    The ingredients in white ink tend to settle. Each day, before starting the day's operations, be sure to shake this cartridge. Allowing the ink to stand can cause the settled material to harden, resulting in malfunctions or other problems.

IMPORTANT
  • Before shaking the ink cartridge, wipe off any ink from around its mouth. If you do not wipe off the ink, it may splatter when you shake the ink cartridge.
  • When you shake the ink cartridge, firmly hold it with both hands to prevent the cover from coming loose. The cover or ink pouch coming loose and falling may cause damage or printer malfunctions.
  • When you have finished mixing the ink, reattach the ink cartridge immediately. Taking time to reattach the ink cartridge will adversely affect the ink path.
  • Even if you are not using the printer, shake the white ink cartridge 50 times (about 20 seconds) once a week.
