3.5 Ink Suction Amount in the Cleaning Mode
The machine has five cleaning modes (A to G). Cleaning is executed for maximum effectiveness and
efficiency. The cleaning operation is selected depending on the respective condition. The ink suction
operation differs depending on the condition at three occasions: Operation by the user, cover open/
closing, and before printing starts.
• Operation by the user: Manual ink suction (Including printer driver operation)
• Cover open/closing: Cleaning at printer arrival
• Before printing starts: Other than manual suction

other preconditions, suction is executed right before the printing starts or during printing.
*3 Printing of EEPROM contents, etc., with the printer alone.
