8.2. Daily Maintenance – Nozzle check/purge
- Check the state of the “Purge” and “Home” station Grid that no cured ink is build up
that can get in contact with the heads.
- Perform a nozzle check and make sure all nozzles are firing.
- Move the head to the HOME position
- In the Control program, push “Test”, and select “Jet Test”.
- Place a white copy (A4-size) paper on the printing table, if no media is present.
The left margin is given by the number that is displayed in the textbox in the
test menu. The default number (500) refers to the position indicated by the
white dots on the beam box.
The “red” area shows the placement of the Spot- and Pré-white if it’s turned
on (use a black or colored paper to see the white).
- Switch on the vacuum.
- select ‘Test’ to start the print.
- Evaluate the nozzle check for missing nozzles.
The Jet Test must be carried out at a correct head height. Place the A4 paper onto
your media, or print it directly on a flexible media that is loaded and for which the
head height is adjusted.
- In case of nozzle failure:
Move carriage to PURGE position
Push the underneath GRID backwards
