1 Cartridge models
The cartridge models Hpgl2 plotter employs are HP51645a or
HP51645b, which can be purchased in Hewlett-Packard (hp) Supplies
specialty stores. Please use cartridges of quality to ensure printing quality.
2 signs of ‘out of ink’
The ink in the cartridge is consumed in the process of printing and the
signs of ‘out of ink’ will gradually turn from green to black. When the sigh is
black, that means this cartridge is used up, and need replacing. (See figure
9-1)
Figure 9- 1 Nozzle
3 Replacement of cartridges
The power should be cut off when replacing cartridges. Extra care
should be paid when plugging cartridges. When printing long graphs, it’s better
to check the ink level of the cartridges beforehand. Try to avoid replacing
cartridges in the process of printing. Loading or replacing cartridges should
follow the sequential operation as shown in Figure 9-2.
