Procedure1. Push on the top of the ink filter enclosure door and it will flip forward to open and provide accessto the filters.[28] Open the Ink Filter Enclosure Cover2. Locate the bleed tube valve on the top of the ink filter you are going to bleed. Attach the syringeto the bleed port and open the stopcock.If you want to reuse the syringe, start with the lighter ink colors first. Darker inks will stain theclear plastic wall of the syringe and make it difficult to see the ink as it comes in.3. Pull the plunger out until ink is seen in the syringe.If there is excessive air, more than one syringe full of air may be extracted. In this case, close thestopcock before disconnecting the syringe and expelling the air. Open it again to continue.NOTEPull back on the syringe plunger in increments and wait for the pressure to equalizebefore pulling more to prevent over-pulling on the syringe. Note that the White inkchannel may need slightly more pulling to overcome the pressure.4. After the air has been fully withdrawn from the filter there will be a noticeable increase in theforce required to pull on the syringe, and ink will begin to flow into the syringe.Bleed an Ink Filter190 Chapter 9 - Printer Maintenance
