Air Pressure System (Ink Cartridges)
Purpose:
The air pressure system for the Ink Cartridges inflates the Ink Cartridges to 1.1 atmospheres to pump ink from the
Cartridges to the Print Head Sub Tanks.
Components:
Air Pressure Release
Valve
Air Pressure Sensor
Air Pressure Distributor
Air Pump Motor
Air Pump
Air Pressure
Release Solenoid
Hoses
Ink Cartridges (not
shown, but part of the
system)
Air Pressure System (Ink Cartridges) Printer Component, Software Item, LCD Display, Printer Button Page 8.
Stylus Pro 10600 Field Repair Guide 7/29/04
Operation:
1. When the Printer is turned on, the Air Pressure Release Solenoid energizes, closing the Air
Pressure Release Valve, sealing the system.
2. The Air Pump Motor runs the Air Pump until the air pressure in the entire system is high enough
to activate the Air Pressure Sensor.
3. Any time that the air pressure in the system drops below 1.1 atmospheres, the Pump Motor runs
until the air pressure is back to the proper level.
4. The Air Pressure Release Solenoid opens the Air Pressure Valve when the Ink Cartridge Bay
Door is opened, or the Printer is turned off, depressurizing the system.
Troubleshooting:
Determine where the leak in the system exists.
1. Remove one of the Hoses running
to the Ink Cartridges.
The cartridge connected to the tube that corresponds to the leaking tube is the most likely cause of the leak.
Air Pressure System (Ink Cartridges) Printer Component, Software Item, LCD Display, Printer Button Page 9.
2. Cover the outlet with a finger,
and see if the system presurizes.
3. Repeat until the leak is found
