capping function for maintaining the print head
in consistently good condition to ensure the best

panel. When more than the set time has passed
since the previous print job, the print head is

quantity of ink is drawn from each ink cartridge
to prevent the nozzle drying out.
Even if you press the button during
self-cleaning, the power is not turned off until
cleaning finishes. Do not pull out the power plug
of the printer during cleaning.
