Printer Interface Color Key

The background colors in the printer indicator fields tell you at a glance whether or not the value or item is suitable or ready for printing.

•   Green—suitable/ready for printing

For example, in the printer interface screen (see below):

❒   Ambient—The ambient temperature of the printing chamber is within the acceptable range.
❒   Heads Liquid—The level of Model and Support material in the print‑block reservoir is OK.
❒   Heads Vacuum—The vacuum level in the system is within the acceptable range.

 

•   Blue—not ready

For example, in the printer interface screen:

❒   UV lamps—The UV lamps are not on.
❒   Heads (°C)—The heads have not reached the temperature required for printing models (in printing mode).
❒   Pre-Heater—The Model and Support resins need to be heated before being supplied to the print block. The temperature has not yet reached the acceptable range.

 

•   Red—not suitable for printing (or indicates a warning)

For example, in the printer interface screen:

❒   Waste—The weight of the waste container is 9000 grams, more than allowed when beginning a print job. (See Replacing the Waste Container.)

The color of the material cartridges displayed in the printer interface indicates which cartridges are active for the current (or next) print job.

For example, in the printer interface screen:

•   Blue—active cartridge
•   Gray—reserve cartridge
