Cleaning the print head
If the printed nozzle check pattern is broken, missing, or a specific colour is not printed, clean the
print head.
NOTE
Cleaning the print head consumes a small amount of ink. Cleaning too often reduces the amount of ink in
the ink tanks.
Your machine performs print head cleaning every time you plug in the power cord. The machine also
performs the cleaning periodically when it is ON.
You can also clean the print head from your computer. (See Software Guide.)
Follow this procedure:
1 Press [Additional Functions].
2 Use [
] or [
] to select <2.MAINTENANCE>.
3 Press [OK/Set].
4 Use [
] or [
] to select <2.CLEANING> or <3.HEAD REFRESHING> as
necessary.
–<CLEANING>: Performs normal print head cleaning.
–<HEAD REFRESHING>: Performs deep print head cleaning.
5 Press [OK/Set].
IMPORTANT
If normal print head cleaning does not result in improvement, perform deep print head
cleaning.
