6.3 Clean or replace the air filter
The method you use to clean or replace the air filter depends on:
• The type of printer—5900 and 7900 or 7900 (IP65 version).
• The operating conditions.
NOTE: The 7900 (IP65 version) includes the 7900 Spectrum printer.
Make sure that you use the correct replacement filter:
• For the 5900 and 7900, the filter part number is FA13178.
• For the 7900 IP65 version, the filter part number is FA13179.
5900 and 7900 printer
Clean the air filter every week. If the printer operates in dirty conditions,
you must clean the filter every day.
To clean or replace the filter:
1. Use the nylon tab to remove the filter element. (Pressure can be
necessary to release the filter from the housing.) Refer to the
illustration below:
Figure 6-10. Remove the air filter (5900 and 7900)
2. Gently hit the filter to remove dirt, or use an air line to blow air
through the filter in the opposite direction to the normal flow.
3. Check that the filter is clean and no dirt is visible in the filter housing.
Replace the filter if you cannot clean it.
4. Fit the clean filter or new filter into the filter housing. Make sure that
you correctly fit the filter:
• The direction of the soft surface of the filter must be towards the
top of the printer.
• The direction of the wire mesh surface must be towards the base
of the printer.
• The direction of the tab must be away from the printer.
