A-61408 September 1995 D-13

Replacing the Ink Cartridge Replace the ink cartridge when any of the following conditions

occur:

• The ink bladder appears shrunken or deflated.

• The printed characters appear light or uneven.

• Missing characters are evident.

• The print test function reveals inconsistent character quality.

• The cleaning and priming procedure has not improved the

overall print quality.

To replace the Front Document Printer ink cartridge:

1. Turn the power Off.

2. Open the Lower Access Door.

CAUTION: For safety reasons the movement of the Lower

Access Door is intentionally slowed with a two-

way rotary damper. Open and close the door

slowly.

3. Release the Front Scan Module Release Bar.

4. Lift up the underlying Front Scan Module.

5. Note the current position of the Front Document Printer.
