SERVICE LEVEL FUNCTIONS
4.1.17. Printing the EEPROM Information Sheet and Initializing the
EEPROM (Function 11)
Note: This procedure can be done only when a black ink cartridge is installed.
The machine calculates the amount of ink ejected to the ink absorbers and
stores it in the EEPROM on the IJC board. If the amount of ink reaches a cer-
tain threshold, the printer stops printing until the ink absorbers are replaced
and the counters in the EEPROM are reset.
To check the current amount of ink in the ink absorbers, print test pattern no.
