the magazine into magazine position 1.

• PressandholdtheCLEAN button until "00" is displayed, then release

the button. A specimen slide is imprinted with a test image stored in the

printer for that purpose. If the print result is not satisfactory, this step

can be repeated several times.

At this point, the instrument has to be "told" which type of cartridge has been

inserted.

There are three options:

1. New ink cartridge:

Press LOADED; the printer sets the ink level meter to 'full'.

2. Used ink cartridge:

Press ERROR; the printer resumes measuring at the ink level where it

previously left off.

new cartridge.

• TheindicatorLED "Ink Empty" goes out, code "88" appears in

the display.

Exchanging the cartridge (continued)

CAUTION!

NEVER press CLEAN while an ink cartridge is in the instrument! The

entire contents of the ink cartridge will spill into the printer.

The fill level of the cleaning cartridge is not monitored. Each use

should be noted on the cartridge. The cartridge can be used twice.

The cycle time when inserting a cleaning cartridge is 3.5 minutes

and is thus considerably longer than that of an ink cartridge.

3. Used or new storage fluid cartridge:

Press the key CLEAN; the current ink level is stored.

completed.
