To make set-up easy and to protect the integrity of the Camel Ink System we include special self closing seals called Camel Seals on the cartridge ink feed assembly and Camel Clamps on the reservoir bottles. Prime all colors simultaneously on initial set-up. EASY swapping of different systems within the same printer. This is great if you use many different inks on the same printer. NO Mess storage of the system when not in use.
Ink stays in the system making re-installing it a breeze.
The ink status monitor for your printer is a special sub program of the driver which keeps track of the amount of ink used by the printer from reset to reset. A light beam shines through the bottom of the tank area of each cartridge. As long as ink covers the prism molded in the bottom of the tank area of the cartridge the printer does not require resetting but will assume the cartridges have enough ink. When the droplet count reaches a certain count the status monitor flashes a low ink warning. In the Stylus Color 3000, the switches are tripped whenever a cartridge is moved out of the locked position.
