Daily Shutdown Not Recommended

DO NOT POWER DOWN THE PRINTER. Power is required to maintain vacuum to the printheads, which keeps ink from seeping out. If power is unexpectedly removed from the printer, print- head vacuum will be lost and ink will leak from the printheads.

The amount of ink lost will be limited to the ink currently in the printheads, not the ink in the ink supply boxes which has not yet been pumped to the printheads.

Since automatic head maintenance cannot occur when the printer is powered down, keep the printer powered on at all times if possible. If automatic head maintenance does not occur for an extended period, manual purging may be necessary to restore the printheads to working condition.

See page A-4for information on using the included auxiliary power supply for the vacuum/pressure system.

The printer will automatically enter a Sleep mode when it has been idle for a user-defined period of time (see page 3-5for details).
