If print quality deteriorates, clean the printhead using the built-in printhead cleaning function. The printer also
has an automatic printhead cleaning cycle to ensure proper nozzle operation for ink ejection and to preserve
the printhead in the best condition. Performing the cleaning more often wastes ink.
1. Turn the printer on and press the Cleaning button. The Power light flashes during this cycle and then
stays on when it is finished.
