Calibrating the
Load Cells
Load cells are sensors that measure the weight of the printing cartridges
and the waste container in the printer. It is important that you periodically
check that the weight measurements are accurate, both for convenience and
to prevent unnecessary waste of printing materials. It is recommended that
you calibrate the load cells once a month, with the Load Cell Calibration
wizard.
To calibrate load cells:
1. Start the Load Cell Calibration wizard.
•
From the Options menu of the printer interface (see figure 7‐33 on
page 26), select
Wizards > Load Cell Calibration
.
2. Select one or more load cells that you want to calibrate, and click
Next
.

Note: It is recommended that you routinely calibrate all of the load cells,
after 500 hours of printing or once every six months.
3. Remove the cartridge or container, as instructed by the wizard,
confirm this in the wizard screen, and click
Next
.
