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.
