Things to keep in mind for a Bulk Ink System:
Proper Cleaning Before Refilling:
- Suppose you’re switching from another ink brand or have used the printer extensively with the original ink. In that case, we recommend flushing the ink lines and tanks to prevent mixing incompatible formulations, which can lead to clogs or color inaccuracies.
- Always follow the proper procedure for refilling the EcoTank system. Please ensure the tank lids are securely closed and the nozzles are correctly aligned to prevent leaks or air bubbles.
- To ensure the ink has good print quality, perform regular nozzle checks and head cleanings before moving from one ink formulation to another.
- Check print output for any signs of streaking or color shifts, as this can indicate that further cleaning is necessary.
- You can also use ICC profiles to get the best colors with BCH bulk inks. Thus, knowing how to set (and read) color values ensures that the printer interprets your color information and prints as you expect.
- To maintain shelf life and performance, store bulk inks in a cool, dark place. Do not expose the ink to sunlight or extreme temperatures, which can degrade it.
