Cleaning Printheads
If you suspect print quality issues related to banding, clogged nozzles, or printing
defects, you might want to initiate a cleaning.
Printhead cleaning cannot be done during a print job or if an error is occurring. When
cleaning is in progress, do not perform any other operation.
Note:
Cleaning the printhead consumes ink. Clean the printhead only when
necessary.
The cleaning options discussed in this procedure are also available in the
Status
tab
of the Kiaro! 50 printer driver and the
Cleaning
menu of the Kiaro! 50 Status Monitor.
