Install the Inkjet Cartridges
The AstroJet 2600P/2800P can be configured with up to six inkjet cartridges. The cartridges are installed as
follows:
• Remove the inkjet cartridge from its packaging, taking care not to touch
the copper contacts, the metal plate, or the gold printhead. Remove
the protective tape from the printhead.
• The cartridges are held in place by a latch lever mounted on the inkjet
cartridge holder. Release the lever by raising it vertical.
• With the cartridge’s printhead pointing down, slide the cartridge into
the holder and push down and toward the contacts in the holder.
• Make sure the cartridge is seated in the holder then close the latch lever
to secure the cartridge in the holder. Do not force the lever into
place. (See the diagram.)
• Repeat the above for the remaining cartridges.
NOTE: For optimum image quality during the run, refer to
"Cleaning the Printhead”.
The ink in the cartridge may be harmful if
swallowed. Keep new and used cartridges
out of reach of children. Discard empty
cartridges immediately.
Setting up the Feed
1. Release the separator-locking lever located on the
operator’s side of the feeder and raise the separators
to the up and locked position. Move the side guides
out to their extreme open position. Place one piece
of media in the center of the feed table.
2. There are four separators on the feeder. Use the two
center separators for narrow media and all four
separators for wide media. Place the media under
the separators and lower the separators so that they
rest on the media.
3. Rotate the locking lever up to lock the separators in
place.
