Part 3: Operating Instructions BJC-7100

3.2 Warning Indications

The printer warns the operator of less serious error states by printing out messages and sounding the beeper. Printing is not forcibly stopped while warnings are displayed.

BJ cartridge mismatch warning

If you select the photo ink system using the printer driver controls and start printing with a color BJ cartridge [BC-61] installed, the printer functions as described below. If you select the standard color ink system using the printer driver controls and start printing with a photo BJ cartridge [BC-62e Photo] installed, it is possible to print, but a message is displayed indicating that it would be preferable to replace the BC-62e Photo cartridge with the BC-61 cartridge.

1) Windows 95/98

After the printer has received the print data, it displays a warning message on the host computer’s screen. Printing does not start. Replace the BC-61 with the BC-62 Photo, then start the print operation.

2) Windows 3.1

Only the data that can be printed with the color BJ cartridge is printed. By checking the printed page, the operator can see that there has been a BJ cartridge mismatch. Replace the BC-61 with the BC-62e Photo, then start the print operation.

BJ cartridge overheat warning (cartridge replacement-inhibited temperature)

This warning message is displayed when you press the REPLACE button or you select BJ cartridge or ink tank replacement via the printer driver’s controls but the head temperature sensor has registered a temperature greater than that prescribed for the head.

When this warning is displayed, the printer beeper sounds 4 times and cartridge replacement is halted.

The printer resumes operating when the head temperature has dropped to the prescribed value, or the head has been left for a minimum of 60 seconds without further heating.
