I.PRODUCT OVERVIEW
1.1Product Overview
"Standard Color Printer for Personal Use"
With an emphasis on "out of the box performance," the printer is ready for high-speed, high-quality printing on plain paper at the default settings.
This printer targets business users who need high-quality text printing or DTP printouts and personal users who want high-speed printing or a good printer to print information from the Internet.
1)High-speed, high-quality printing with a bi-directional, color, 1200 dpi, nozzle-pitch printing head.
•Full-page color printing on plain paper is faster and of higher quality than rival printers.
B/W text:
Color DTP:
Compared to: Color full address*2:
•Color ink drop size is 5 pl.
2)High-quality printing with new inks
Pigment black: A black with better density (OD*3 value of 1.4 or higher) makes high-
|
density text printing possible. |
Color: |
Improved brilliance and better color density. |
3)Base model for future printers
•The printer's engine (BJ cartridge and BJ cartridge drive system) will be standard equipment on future BJ printers.
•The printer's other systems (carriage system, paper transport system, ASF, purge system) have a modular design so they can easily be used in successor or sister models.
•The ASF uses a new system (Duopro*4) marking a major improvement in paper feed power. Paper transport strength.
4)The DC motor (carriage and paper feed) makes printing quiet.
5)Compact design.
6)Compatible with Windows 95/98/NT 4.0/2000 and Mac OS 8.1 or higher.
*1: Standard pattern introduced in 2000 for printing speed measurements. *2: On A4-size paper, each dot is printed at 1200 × 1200 dpi intervals.
*3: Optical Density.
*4: Separation system based on the friction between paper sheets, paper and pad, and paper and the paper transport roller of the separation pad.

1. PRINTER OPERATION
The printer's operation procedures are explained below. You can operate the printer either by itself or with a computer. Both methods are explained below.
1.1 Printer Operation Procedure
The printer's operation panel has a POWER button and a RESUME button to cancel printing operation or to cancel an error. With a computer, you can use the printer driver to adjust the print head's position and to change various settings. For details on using the printer driver with the computer, see page 3-22.
POWER button
Turns the printer ON/OFF and cancels test printing.
RESUME button
Cancels printing operation or an error.
The cleaning and nozzle check pattern can be selected by the number of blinks of the indicator.
Figure 2-1 Operation Panel
1.2 Status Indicator
When you operate the printer by itself, you can find out the printer's operation status with the indicator. When an error occurs, the nature of the error can be determined by the number of times the indicator blinks.

1.3 Operating the Printer
The printer has an offline operation mode that works when the printer is not connected to a computer and the power is on.
To conduct the operations below, with the power turned on, hold down the RESUME button until the green indicator blinks for the specified number of times.

1.3.1 Cleaning operation
To start the cleaning operation, turn on the printer and hold down the RESUME button until the green indicator blinks once. Then let go of the button. Cleaning will then start. The black and color ink nozzles will be cleaned simultaneously by suction. This is the same as using the printer driver to clean all of the ink nozzles.
1.3.2 Printing the nozzle check pattern
With the printer turned on, hold down the RESUME button until the green indicator blinks twice. The printer will then start printing the nozzle check pattern. If any printing flaws show up in this test printout, clean the BJ cartridge.
Printing the nozzle check pattern requires B5 or larger paper. If the paper's width is narrower than the nozzle check pattern, the printer will print on the bare platen, dirtying the platen with ink.
To stop printing of the test pattern midway, press the POWER button.
Printing will stop and the paper will be ejected. The printer will remain on.
If the problem persists even after cleaning the BJ cartridge three times, Perform Deep Cleaning of from the driver. If that still does not resolve the problem, replace the BJ cartridge.

1.3.3 Roller cleaning operation
This is to remove the paper dust adhering to the auto sheet feeder's rollers. With the printer turned on, hold down the RESUME button until the green indicator blinks once. The cleaning of the rollers will then start.
There are two cleaning methods:
(1)Passing plain paper through
Place a sheet of plain paper on the auto sheet feeder and execute roller cleaning. Do this three times.
(2)Rotating the rollers without paper
Execute roller cleaning without placing any paper on the auto sheet feeder. (The rollers will rotate ten times.)
Do this three times.
Do not execute the cleaning operation more times than necessary. Excessive cleaning will generate rubber dust which can affect the printer's operation.
