Abstract:
In a method for operating an inkjet printing machine, a condition of an ink is determined. A sedimentation and/or agglomeration of a pigmented ink is determined by refractometry, i.e. the value of the refractive index of the ink is measured with a refractometer and compared with a stored value with computer assistance.

Claim (Index 6):
The method according to  claim 1 , wherein depending on a value of a deviation obtained from a comparison, one of the following steps is taken:\n printing with the pigmented ink without stirring; printing with the pigmented ink with simultaneous stirring; printing with the pigmented ink after the stirring; intensifying the stirring, namely longer and/or faster stirring; outputting a warning upon detection of a high sedimentation; computer-aided gathering of a decision for or against an ink change; emptying an ink tank and/or an ink storage container; flushing the ink tank and/or the ink storage container and/or an ink line and/or an inkjet print head with a cleaning liquid; and changing out the pigmented ink.
