As you purge the old ink and charge the new ink, the printer has been known to let the ink build up into a frothy mixture. Obviously this plays havoc with your efforts in trying to get a good nozzle check.
Should this happen, do not panic. Let the printer sit overnight and then do the following: This won't work without paper loaded. Paper can't be properly loaded in the service mode. Make sure that the paper is loaded properly before starting. To access service mode , turn the printer off.
This will initiate the test mode. This will initiate a nozzle check that will run all the way across the sheet, and print other parameter bars as well.
Should the next nozzle check still not be perfect, run the Initial Fill one more time. Be advised that this procedure should only be used when first installing the CFS as it uses a lot of ink. Unfortunately you may need a replacement maintenance waste ink tank to complete this process due to the amount of ink that is to be drained from the system. A replacement tank must be available before running this procedure. If you don't have a replacment maintenance tank, you can reuse the one in the printer by replacing the absorbent material then resetting the chip on the tank with an MIS SK or equivalent chip resetter.
Tightly packed cotton balls, terry cloth rags, sanitary napkins or disposable diaper material work well as absorbing material. The cotton balls reduce the splatter of ink. If you use cotton balls, be sure to check the tank often to see if it is filling up. You don't want the mess of an overflow! It involves using the draining cartridge that came with the new printer and a sequence of commands from the printer's keypad. During this procedure you are asked to remove all carts, insert the draining cart and the printer will then go through a draining procedure to remove the black ink from the lines.
When this is complete you are asked to return all ink carts to the printer at which time the printer goes through an ink charging action. During this phase of the procedure, all ink lines are charged, pushing ink through all the lines at a fairly rapid pace, not just the black ink, but all 7 inks. It is at this point that you will replace a flush set of carts in place of the ink carts. This will instead put flush liquid into the lines. You will then enter the service mode to do an initial ink fill procedure which will further charge the lines with flush liquid and purge the printer's lines of old ink.
Once the lines run clean, you can replace the flush carts with the new ink carts and run the same initial fill procedure until the new ink is fully charged into the lines and dampers.
It sounds a little complicated, but is easy after you have done it once or twice. Here are is the step by step process. Steps to Take: Go to printer's keypad and press the SelecType or right arrow button. Press the down arrow button on the keypad until you see Maintenance in the LED window. You will be prompted at this time for which ink you are changing to. Choose 1 mat - 2 lt blk.
At this point make sure you have all your materials laid out and ready to go. If at this point your printer determines that one or more carts doesn't have enough ink for the procedure, simply reset the chip using a chip resetter even though you are not refilling the ink. You will not need these carts again if you are changing inksets. You will now be given a series of instructions in the LED window to follow. You will first be asked to lift the ink lever and then remove all ink cartridges.
