How to improve print quality
Cleaning the print head
To ensure good print quality, the machine will regularly clean the
print head. You can start the cleaning process when needed.
Clean the print head and ink cartridges if you get a horizontal line in
the text or graphics on your printed pages. You can clean two colors
at a time (Black/Cyan, Yellow/Magenta), or all four colors at once.
Cleaning the print head consumes ink. Cleaning too often uses ink
unnecessarily.

Do NOT clean the print head by touching it with your hand or a
cloth.
