Display View
The LCD Display contains an Ink Capacity gauge. This gauge indicates the amount of ink remaining in the ribbon cartridge using four bar segments, from E (Empty) to F (Full).
The PIX-55 calculates the ink capacity of the ribbon cartridge from the number of imprints made. As the ink capacity decreases, the bars in the gauge will disappear. When the ribbon capacity drops below 25%, the “E ”, “F” and “INK” characters will blink until the ribbon is replaced and the ink counter is reset.
