To print the post-cleaning test pattern in the space beside an existing pattern, press the
u button to rewind the media until the print start position is aligned with the pressure
rollers.
Head Cleaning
Should the nozzle pattern contain faint or missing segments, you may be able to unclog the
nozzles by cleaning the print head as described below.
There is no need to clean the head if the print result does not contain faint areas or other
color problems.
Important:
Always remove clogs from the nozzles of all colors before resuming use. If clogged
nozzles remain when printing (including clogged nozzles for colors that are not used), the
clogs can no longer be removed.
