Are dots OK?


[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED]

Dear Half-Mast,

We have been taught that the dots on our ICAM ICAM - Integrated Computer Aided Manufacturing  (improved chemical agent monitor) are supposed to disappear from the display once the WAIT light goes off. But with some of our ICAMs, the dots don't disappear until about a minute after the WAIT light goes off. Are these ICAMs OK or should we send them to maintenance?

Dear Sergeant T.C.,

As long as the dots disappear within a minute, your ICAM is OK. If the dots don't disappear, install a nozzle An orifice in an inkjet print head through which ink is sprayed onto the paper. Print heads with six thousand or more nozzles are common in today's printers.
Nozzle 
 cap and run the ICAM for 72 hours. Then do the self-test and confidence test again. Dots still won't go away? Your ICAM needs to go to direct support for a checkup checkĀ·up
n.
1. An examination or inspection.

2. A general physical examination.
