IMPORTANT
When unplugging the power cord, be sure to press [ON/OFF] first. When you press [ON/OFF], the print
head is protected by the cap to prevent the ink from drying. Turn the machine OFF with [ON/OFF]. When
unplugging the power cord, be sure to unplug it after turning the machine OFF with [ON/OFF].
When not using the machine for a long time, to prevent degradation of the print head, print or copy in
both black & white and in colour, or perform print head cleaning, about once a month.
Numerous nozzles are installed in the print head for high-precision printing. Just as the uncapped tip of
a ballpoint pen or marker becomes dry and unusable if not used for a long period of time, the print head
nozzles become blocked by dried ink. Periodically printing or cleaning the print head can prevent this
blockage.
NOTE
The power cannot be turned OFF with [ON/OFF] when the machine is operating.
Your machine performs a print head cleaning every time you plug in the machine. This ensures optimum print
quality but also consumes a small amount of ink during the cleaning process.
