Chapter 3. Messages Message Displays Message Displays Errors are displayed in red text on the screen. Errors prevent printing by taking the print station out of ‘Ready to Print’ status or by preventing it from being put in that status (the ‘Ready’ selection inactive). Figure 3.3 shows a sample error message displayed during startup. When any error occurs, press F2 to display information about the error, then press F8 to clear the error. Serious errors cannot be cleared by pressing F8. If such an error occurs, contact your service technician or contact Kodak technical support.

Message List Messages are listed in alphabetical order. When more than one cause is listed, the first is the most likely cause of the message. When more than one action is given, each action should be taken in numerical order. Check External Containers Explanation: The ink level has remained incorrect for 5 minutes. Possible cause: 1. empty external supply; 2. tubing from external supplies; 3. external ink or replenisher supply solenoid; 4. fluid controller board; 5. ink level switch. Action: 1. Check the external supplies of ink and replenisher, and replace if necessary. 2. Check the tubing from the external supplies for kinks or breaks. 3. If the error recurs, have a service technician run diagnostics to check the solenoids and switches. 44 DS5600 Series Printing Systems
Chapter 3. Messages Message List Check Ink Reorder Number Explanation: The ink was changed recently, and the print station determined that the difference in concentration was too great to correct by adding ink or replenisher. Possible cause: 1. software configuration; 2. resistivity sensor; 3. fluid controller board. Action: 1. Check the ink reorder number. 2. If the error recurs, have a service technician reset the ink reorder number. If the error persists, have a service technician run diagnostics on the resistivity sensor and fluid controller board. Ink Concentration HIGH Explanation: Ink concentration is higher than normal. The print station may not be adding replenisher automatically. High concentration can occur if the printhead is ready for a long period without printing. Possible cause: 1. low ink use in a job or circulating ink without printing; 2. ink leakage; 3. inline filter (replenisher); 4. 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. 2. Check the external supply for replenisher, and replace the drum if necessary. 3. If the error recurs, have a service technician check the inline filter for replenisher. If the error persists, and printing is too dark, have a service technician make sure that the proper ink reorder number has been entered, run diagnostics on the inkjet controller board, and check that ink is not leaking into the print station from the external containers. 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. If the error recurs, have a service technician check the inline filter for ink. If the error persists, and printing is too light, have a service technician make sure that the proper ink reorder number has been entered, run diagnostics on the inkjet controller board, check that the fluid supply lines from the external containers are not blocked, and that fluid can flow freely to the print station. Next, have the service technician make sure the level switches in the ink tank are operating normally and that switch connections are secure. Then check that the solenoid valves that control fluid flow are operating normally and that connections are secure. Ink Level FILLING Explanation: Action: This status message displays when the print station is automatically adding fluids. Possible cause: 1. empty containers; 2. fluid lines; 3. level switches; 4. solenoid valves None required unless this message displays for more than several minutes. The problem is corrected when “Ink Level OK” displays. Operator Guide 45
