Refilling the Printheads from the Front Panel
You may want to refill the printheads before printing a very large (long axis) or
dense print that may require more ink than the minimum volume in the printhead.
Select Refill in the Printhead service menu. Refill causes the printer to refill all four
printheads immediately. If a file is being printed when you select Refill, the printer
waits for the current print to be completed before refilling the printheads.
How big a print can I make without a refill?
The printheads contain enough ink for almost all E/A0 size jobs. The table below
shows the possible area at 100% ink coverage.
If you are printing on backlit media, you may only be able to print half the area
before a refill occurs, this is because the printer needs more ink to print on backlit
media.
