Cleaning the Gutter

7.8 Cleaning the Gutter

When the ink recovery system is dry or its inner ink flow is restricted, you can

clean the path between the gutter and ink main tank by performing the "gutter

cleaning" procedure set forth below.

Gutter cleaning cannot be carried out during ink ejection. Initiate the gutter

cleaning procedure with the printer placed in the "Stop" state.

Have on hand a beaker and the cleaning bottle filled with the makeup ink, and

then remove the print head cover.

If you perform the gutter cleaning procedure repeatedly, the ink becomes thin,

causing print irregularities. If such a situation occurs, you would be obliged to

replace the ink after achieving recovery. To avoid such a problem, do not

repeat the gutter cleaning procedure more than two times.

Open the "Circulation control" screen and then sequentially press

the Gutter cleaning key and Start/Continue key.
