Do not move the ink cartridge after installing it. Moving the ink
cartridge to the left and leaving it there may uncap the print head
and cause it to dry out.
8. Close the front cover.
When you are not using the printer, make sure the ink
cartridge is in its home position, which is on the right side
of the printer.
Always use the POWER button to turn off the printer. This
ensures that the printer moves the print head to the home position
and caps it.
Cleaning the Print Head
The print head on a new ink cartridge needs to be cleaned
to ensure the best possible print quality. The printer
automatically cleans the print head when you follow these
steps:
1. Make sure the printer is turned on and on-line.
2. Press the ON LINE and PRINT MODE buttons at the
same time.
§ When the ON LINE light starts to blink,
release the buttons.
The ON LINE indicator will blink for about 12 seconds
while the printer cleans the print head. When complete, the
ON LINE indicator stops blinking and goes off. Press ON
LINE to resume printing.
Cleaning the print head consumes a small amount of ink.
Repeating this procedure unnecessarily reduces the life of the
cartridge.
