» Change Ink Tubes

The purpose of this Service Utility is to move the Carriage Assembly to a position where it makes the removal of the Ink Supply Tubes much easier.

NOTE: In order to actually replace the Ink Supply Tubes, refer to » Ink Supply Tubes.

Perform the Change Ink Tubes utility as follows:

In the Service Utilities submenu, scroll to "Change Ink Tubes" and press Enter.

Once the utility starts, the printer will display the following message on the front panel. If you want to abort the Change Ink Tubes utility, press Cancel and you will return to the Set-up menu.

If you press Enter, the Carriage will move to a position where you change the Ink Supply Tubes and the following message will be displayed on the Front Panel. You should switch the Printer OFF before starting to change the Ink Supply Tubes.

NOTE: The next time the Printer is switched ON, it will automatically start the Priming process.
