Your printer was shipped with the ink delivery system partially filled with Cleaning Solution to preserve the integrity of the ink delivery system and prevent the print heads from drying out. The Cleaning Solution has to be removed prior to filling the printer with the printing inks. Follow the procedure below to flush the Cleaning Solution from the system. Do not install the ink cartridges at this time.

The Fill Menu on the touch-screen LCD Control Panel is different on the RICOH Ri 3000/Ri 6000 printers. The Ri 3000 and Ri 6000 printers also utilize a fully circulating ink delivery system for the White Ink Channels that uses 2 sets of tubing. The first set is called the Print side and the second set the Purge side.
