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 sys-
tem 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.

Checking for Nozzle Clogging

Ink Level Detection
Ink level detection will be deactivated if you load ink tanks once emptied.
Ink level detection
Ink tanks specified for this printer feature an ink level detection function to prevent the ink from running out during print-
ing, which prevents printer damage.
(See "
Ink Tanks
.")
→P.800
This function will not work correctly if you use refill ink tanks. As a result, printing stops. Thus, before using refill ink
tanks, you must cancel the ink level detection.
Printing with the ink level detection canceled may lead to printer damage and printing problems. Canon Inc. is not liable for
any damage that may occur as a result of refilling ink.
Important
•
After ink level detection has been released, this function cannot be reactivated for currently loaded Ink Tank.
To use ink level detection again, replace the Ink Tank with new ones specified for use with the printer.
•
Repeatedly removing and inserting an Ink Tank may damage the connection between the Ink Tank and the
printer, which may cause ink leakage from the Ink Tank and damage the printer.
