The joints and ink outlets of the respective ink tanks of the photo BJ cartridge [BC-
62e Photo] and color BJ cartridge [BC-61] are also part of the ink path and must be
handled with care.
Unless absolutely necessary, do not remove the ink tanks from a BJ cartridge, since
air may enter the ink path and have a negative effect on print quality.
The BJC-7100 uses a variety of inks and an ink optimizer for printing on
plain paper. The ink optimizer is an almost colorless, transparent fluid.
We will refer to the ink optimizer for plain paper simply as ink optimizer or
just optimizer for simplicity purposes. We will also refer to the various
colored inks and the ink optimizer for plain paper simply as "inks".
1.3.2 Ink mist
The BJ cartridge ejects ink onto the paper. After prolonged or heavy-duty use of the
printer, a small amount of ink mist splattered during printing can dirty the printer
such as the platen.
Turn off the power, open the front cover, and clean the dirty parts with a soft moist
cloth. This is to prevent dirtying the paper, your hands, and clothing from touching
these parts.
