for details.

10.

Sleep/Wake mode — Sleep powers down the UV lamps, ionizer bar, printheads, carriage, ink
pumps, and media drive motors, but maintains vacuum to the printheads to prevent ink leakage.
Wake powers up the printer components. The printer goes into sleep mode automatically after a
user-defined period of time, and “wakes” automatically when a print job is received or a printer
operation is performed from the control panel.

NOTE:

If printhead vacuum is ever lost, the ink in the printheads will seep onto the service station.

To prevent ink leakage during an unexpected power outage, use the vacuum/pressure system’s
24 volt auxiliary power supply and connect it to an uninterruptable power supply (UPS). See
Appendix A for specifications. It is not necessary to connect the entire printer to a UPS, only the
vacuum/pressure system needs to be connected to avoid ink seepage.

11.

Print prime bars — fires all jets by drawing a set of lines called prime bars. This is a good way to

You can also print a similar pattern called Print Jet-Out Lines, which shows which jets have been
detected and replaced by AutoJet (see

Print Jet-Out Lines on page 61

).
