Key to Enjoying Consistent Printing Quality
The key to printing with the optimal printing quality is to prevent the print head from drying or clogging.
Always observe the following rules for optimal printing quality.
Never unplug the power cord until the power is turned off!
If you press the
ON
button to turn off the power, the printer caps the print head (nozzles) automatically to
prevent from drying. If you unplug the power cord from the wall outlet while the
POWER
lamp is lit or
flashing, the print head will not be capped properly and this will cause drying or clogging.
POWER
lamp is not lit.
Print periodically!
Just as the tip of a felt pen becomes dry and unusable if it has not been used for a long time, even if it is
capped, the print head too, may become dried or clogged if the printer has not been used for a long time.
We recommend you to use the printer at least once a month.
Ink is mixed at fixed intervals.
The printer is set to automatically mix the ink to maintain optimal printing quality. Therefore, printing on a
regular basis helps keep the ink in good condition.
If the printer is not used for an extended period of time, the printer will automatically mix the ink before
printing.
Note
• Depending on the type of paper, ink may blur if you trace the printed area with a highlight pen or
paint-stick, or bleed if water or sweat comes in contact with the printed area.
