and affect the printing quality.

Cleaning the Printhead
If printing is faint, cleaning the Printhead may improve results.
Choose one of two Printhead cleaning modes (
Head Cleaning A
or
Head Cleaning B
), depending on the problem
to resolve.
•
Head Cleaning A
Use this mode if printing is faint or contains foreign substances. This method of cleaning consumes the least
amount of ink.
It takes about six minutes to complete.
•
Head Cleaning B
Use this mode if no ink is ejected at all, or if
Head Cleaning A
does not solve the problem.
It takes about seven minutes to complete.
Caution
•
Do not remove the Maintenance Cartridge or ink tanks during either
Head Cleaning A
or
Head Cleaning B
.
