Due to the additions of new ink types to those that can be used by the machine and due to changes to the test pattern used
to correct printing, there are a number of items that have been changed in the supplied instruction manuals. This document
explains these changes. Be sure to read this document before using the machine.

Installing the Ink Cartridges
When installing ink cartridges for the rst time, clean the print heads with the cleaning solution, and then ll with ink of each
color. This operation requires four SOL INK cleaning cartridges (two cartridges for LEF-12).
* Be sure to use fresh SOL INK cleaning cartridges and ink cartridges.
* Never under any circumstances use anything other than the specied type of ink or cleaning uid.
Be sure to follow the on-screen instructions for
insertion and removal.
- Insert and remove slowly, one at a time.
- Insert rmly, as far as it will go.
- Insert rmly until you hear a beep.

During cleaning, you need to insert and remove cartridges several times. The on-screen messages tell you when or which
cartridge to be inserted or removed. The SOL INK cleaning cartridges are not dierentiated by color.
Important
Insert each color ink cartridge into the slot labeled with the matching color. If you insert the wrong cartridges, the color inks
may be mixed. Be careful not to insert the wrong cartridges. Contact your authorized Roland DG Corp. dealer or us, if you
inserted the wrong cartridges and the color inks were mixed.

Be Sure to Keep the Ink Cartridge Cover Closed at All Times.
The ink cartridge cover prevents the ink cartridges from being exposed to direct sunlight or strong illumination. If the
ink cartridges are exposed to them, the ink inside the cartridges will become hardened, and it may cause the printer to
malfunction. Make sure that the ink cartridge cover is always closed except when absolutely necessary, such as when you are
replacing ink cartridges.
