Out-of-ink Warnings
When an ink pouch runs out, printing pauses and a warning beep sounds. The LED also blinks as shown in the following figure for ink slot 3.
When printing pauses, the message Ink has run out. appears on the operation panel.
An ink slot LED being lit indicates that the ink slot is in use. An ink slot LED being off indicates that the ink slot is not in use.
IMPORTANT
- If ink runs out during printing, printing is paused.
- If ink runs out during cleaning, cleaning is canceled.
IMPORTANT
Never reuse an ink cartridge for which the machine shows a sign indicating no ink.
Occasionally the machine will show a sign indicating no ink even if there is a small amount of ink remaining in the cartridge. Such an ink cartridge is in a state where drawing ink from it is impossible, so using it in such a state may force air into the ink path and cause malfunctions.
