Checking the Sheet Counters

The status of each consumable part can be viewed to determine when to replace or clean the consumables.

The background color of the counter changes as it gets closer to the time to replace the consumables or to clean the scanner.

The color of each counter changes as follows:

  • [Brake Roller]/[Pick Roller] counters

    These counters turn light yellow when the sheet count after the consumable replacement reaches 95% of the value specified in Specifying the Cycle to Replace Consumables [Life Counter Alarm Setting] in the Software Operation Panel, and turn yellow when the sheet count reaches 100%.

  • [After cleaning] counter

    This counter turns yellow when the sheet count after cleaning reaches the value specified in Scanner Cleaning Cycle [Cleaning Cycle] in the Software Operation Panel.

  • [Remaining Ink] counter

    This counter turns yellow when the amount of remaining ink reaches below 33% (only displayed when the imprinter is installed).

  1. Start up the Software Operation Panel.

    For details, refer to Starting Up the Software Operation Panel.

  2. From the list on the left, select [Device Setting].
  3. Check each counter.
