  12. New Maintenance Station Problem

  13. Maintenance Station replacement question

    I realise this may be a very stupid question. I am on with replacing my Maintenance station (complete with pump assembly) on my VJ1604. Do I have to power the machine down and discharge as I will have to disconnect the pump motor? Or can this be done whilst the machine is still on? Thanks SC

    Is their a way to by pass the chips temporary? I am trying to set up this machine but need it in a fully working state to clean and run test prints. Once this is fully operational I am going to fit a bulk ink system so I no longer need cartridges and will have permanent chips. Thanks SC
