4Ć3 Preventive Maintenance C4699Ć90000
Ink Spilling
The service configuration plot gives an estimation of the amount of ink in the plotter's
spittoon. (Details ' page 8Ć49 or 8Ć50.) To prevent ink spilling, replace both the spittoon and
the inkĆseparator when the spittoon is almost full. About 880 primes are needed to fill up
the inkĆseparator.
Note that if you clear the EEROM or replace the electronics module, the factory spittoon
value is reset to 0% used. Keep in mind that the value printed on the service configuration
plot may greatly underestimate the amount of ink in the spittoon. Future PCĆbased plotter
diagnostics will enable you to download information from the old EEROM and upload it to
the new EEROM.
Belt Swelling
To prevent new belts from swelling incorrectly, keep them in their bags with dissicant until
you need to install them.
Cleaning the RollĆfeed Assembly
Always clean the rubber diverter of the rollĆfeed assembly with a dry cloth. Never clean it
with water or alcohol based substances.
