Imprinter Maintenance

The ink cartridges, ink blotter strips, and ink cartridge carrier used in the

 

imprinter will need replacing occasionally.

Imprinting Problems

If you are having problems imprinting on scanned documents:

 

• The tip of the ink cartridge may be plugged. Purge (prime) the ink

 

cartridge (refer to “Purging an Ink Cartridge” in this chapter). If the ink

 

still does not flow properly, replace the ink cartridge. Dispose of used

 

ink cartridges properly.

 

• Verify that the ink cartridge is not empty. The ink bladder inside the cartridge

 

is flat when it is empty.

 

• Make sure that the ink cartridge is properly installed in the imprinter.

 

• Make sure that the ink cartridge is located in the correct position

 

for imprinting.

 

• Make sure that the ink cartridge carrier is properly seated in its

 

positioning slot.

 

• Verify that all imprinter connectors are securely fastened and that the

 

imprinter cables are not folded or creased.

Replacing an

Ink Cartridge

When the imprinter is not being used, place the ink cartridge on its side so that ink does not drip down on the blotter strips.

Refer to “Installing an Ink Cartridge” in this chapter for information about replacing an empty ink cartridge.

Purchase ink cartridges from an office supply retailer near you.
