4. Service: Check the inline filter for replenisher.
5. Service: Depending on the system configuration, make sure the fluid
controller board is operating normally. Replace the board if
necessary.
6. Service: Check that ink is not leaking into the print station from the
external containers. Correct the leakage problem if necessary.
Ink Concentration LOW
Explanation:
Ink concentration is lower than normal. The print station is not
automatically adding ink, or it is adding too much replenisher. Possible
cause: 1. high ink use in a job, 2. replenisher leakage, 3. inline filter (ink),
4. level switches, 5. solenoid valves, 6. fluid controller board.
Action: 1. Monitor image darkness for at least one hour to allow the print station
to automatically correct ink concentration. The problem is corrected
when “Ink Concentration OK” displays. If this message displays for
more than an hour, proceed with the next action.
2. Check the external supply for ink, and replace the drum if necessary.
3. Service: If printing is too light, make sure that the proper ink reorder
number has been entered.
4. Service: Check the inline filter for ink.
5. Service: Depending on the system configuration, make sure the fluid
controller board is operating normally. Replace the board if
necessary.
6. Service: Make sure the fluid supply lines from the external containers
are not blocked, and that fluid can flow freely to the print station.
Clean or replace the lines if necessary.
7. Service: Make sure the level switches in the ink tank are operating
normally and that switch connections are secure. Replace the
switches if necessary.
8. Service: Make sure the solenoid valves that control fluid flow are
operating normally and that connections are secure. Replace the
valves if necessary.
