during opera-
tion.
The following sounds do not indicate a problem with the printer.
•
There is a sound of suction from the Platen.
To prevent paper from rising, paper is held against the Platen by suction from Vacuum holes under
it.
•
Roll paper makes a fluttering sound during printing.
There may be a fluttering sound when large paper is advanced.
•
You suddenly hear the sound of cleaning operations.
At regular intervals, for printer maintenance, cleaning operations will begin automatically, even if
the printer is in Sleep mode.
•
You suddenly hear the sound of ink agitation.
At regular intervals, to ensure optimal printing quality, the ink is agitated automatically, even if the
printer is in Sleep mode. Ink agitation takes about a minute and a half.
The ink is also agitated automatically under the following conditions. Note that other operations
are not possible while "

The printer consumes a lot of ink
Cause
Corrective Action
Many full-page color images
are printed.
In print jobs such as photos, images are filled with color. This consumes a lot of ink.
This does not indicate a problem with the printer.
Head Cleaning B
in the Con-
trol Panel menu is executed
frequently.
Head Cleaning B
in the Control Panel menu consumes a lot of ink. This does not
indicate a problem with the printer. Unless the printer has been moved or stored for a
long period or you are troubleshooting Printhead problems, we recommend not per-
forming
Head Cleaning B
, to the extent possible.
You have just finished initial
installation, when more ink is
consumed to fill the system.
After initial installation or at the first-time use after transfer, ink flows into the system
between the Ink Tank and Printhead, which may cause the ink level indicators to drop
to 80%. This does not indicate a problem with the printer.
The Printhead nozzles are
clogged.
Check for nozzle clogging.
