a service operation. If the unit needs to be switched on and off frequently, then the service mode should only be
used in order to prevent ink from getting diluted excessively.
NOTE:
After the unit has been switched off in the emergency or service modes, wash the inner part of the head (espe-
cially around the gutter) with solvent.

Replacing Ink/Solvent Bottle
The empty bottle condition is normally indicated with a sound alarm and the following terminal message:
SOLVENT LACK
or
INK LACK
This is the right time to replace the empty bottle with a full one.
This procedure can be performed during printing within 20 minutes after the above message has been dis-
played (If the indicated period of time elapses, printing will be stopped). It involves the following steps:
1.
Lift the latch for bottles (see
) and remove the empty bottle from which ink (or solvent) has been taken
so far; the following message can appear on the terminal:
SOLVENT:
NO BOTTLE
or
INK:
NO BOTTLE
2.
Lift the latch again, put a new bottle in place of the removed one, following the information given on the latch
(insert an ink bottle equipped with a black stopper to the black connection on the right, i.e. a solvent bottle
equipped with a white stopper to the white connection on the left - see
) and press it as much as practi-
cally possible making sure that the latch is in the appropriate bottle groove. One or more messages can be dis-
played. If the bottle is right, i.e. a new one (or in other words, not accepted yet), the following message should
appear at first:
CODE VERIFYING:
WAIT 10 SECONDS PLEASE
3.
If the BOTTLE ACCEPTED message is displayed within 10 seconds, this means that the bottle can be used in
a given printer.
