NOTE: UV inks have a limited shelf life. The Warranty Ends date listed on the ink box label should be taken into account when ordering inks, rotating ink in inventory, and planning print jobs. Printing with an ink supply after this date may result in substandard image quality.

The amount of ink in the ink supply box is tracked by the printer software and recorded on its corresponding profiler. The control panel displays a bar graph with the ink levels in each ink box. When the control panel shows that the ink is low, replace the ink box with a full ink box of the same color, and replace the profiler.

NOTE: You may want to wear gloves (latex or nitrile) and have a paper towel handy to catch the drops of ink that may fall from the ink tube connection during this procedure.
