Refill Information (DesignJet 5500 Series Only)

Ink-Level Sensing (ILS) Out of Control

Two situations exist that could trigger an ILS Out of Control:

￿HP Ink Cartridges deliver more ink than the expected 680cc

–Ink Cartridges refilled with non-hp ink.

–ILS coils become stuck (rare).

￿Non-hp hardware detected in the Ink Delivery System.

Each one of these situations could potentially damage the printer’s Ink-Tube System and Printheads. However, since we cannot tell for sure if damage to the printer will occur we cannot prevent a customer from printing. What we can do is warn the customer of possible damage, but not stop the printing altogether.
