4.2.7 HEAD WASH
Function
Cleans the ink channels inside the head, damper and tube.
When modifying ink type or ink set, empties the ink out of the channel and cleans the inside using the washing liquid.
Procedure
1. Select [HEAD WASH] from the operation menu.
2. During the initial filling after cleaning the head, select “Yes” if
you change the ink set.
(The ink set can be changed only at the factory shipment,
because change of the coupler is also needed.)
[
]: Head wash (normal)
[
]: Head wash that accompanies ink-set change.
3. Remove all the ink cartridges and then discharge the ink inside.
Carry out the discharge after the confirmation of display when a
waste ink tank warning occurs.
4. Insert the washing-liquid cartridges into all the slots, clean the
inside of the tube, and then carry out head vibration.
5. Remove all the washing-liquid cartridges and then discharge the
liquid inside.
During the cleaning sequence, the cartridge sensor in the printer monitors the insertion and removal of each
cartridge. When the sensor detects the cartridge specified on the screen (or when the sensor detects no
cartridge), the printer automatically carries out absorbing and discharging operations (The ink suction pump
motor is activated). Note that the washing liquid cartridge will be recognized as normal even when the
cartridge sensor fails to read IC chip information, because the cartridge is not equipped with the IC chip.
As non-filling state remains after the completion of cleaning, the Initial Filling or filling of corresponding
head is required.
