• Once cleaning of the interior has started, it cannot be canceled. Cleaning must be completed
before the machine can be used again. Once cleaning is completed, replace the ink cartridge,
turn the machine on, and provide the initial supply of ink. Once the message "Ready" appears
after the initial supply of ink is provided, you can use the machine.
• When cleaning the interior, a large amount of waste fluid is generated. Moreover, when
cleaning fails, a new ink cartridge or ink collector unit may be required due to additional ink
consumption or waste fluid generation. Clean the interior only if you do not use the machine for
three months or longer.
• When using this machine again after cleaning the interior, an initial supply of ink is required.
The initially supplied ink is consumed. In order to avoid an ink shortage during the initial supply
of ink and consumption of the ink cartridge, when using this machine again, attach a new ink
cartridge.
• When cleaning the interior, use a new dedicated cleaning cartridge.
• The cleaning cartridges for each color are single use. Even if the liquid remains inside, do not use
the cartridge. When reusing the cleaning cartridge, cleaning may not be completed.
• If the Maintenance Unit is not cleaned and automatic print head maintenance is not performed,
cleaning of the interior may fail. When the Maintenance Unit is not cleaned and automatic print
head maintenance is not performed, carry out this maintenance before cleaning the interior. For
details, see page 133 "Clean Maint Unit", page 136 "Auto Head Maint.".
• Do not operate this machine while the interior is being cleaned. Doing so may result in a cleaning
failure. When the ink collector unit is full during cleaning, a message may appear. However, do
not operate until cleaning is completed. Moreover, do not perform printing or access the machine
from a computer.
• When storing the machine after cleaning the interior, store it with a cleaning cartridge attached.
Replace the ink cartridge using this machine again.
1. Turn the machine on.
Confirm that "Ready" appears.
2. Confirm that the ink collector unit has sufficient available capacity.
When the ink collector unit is almost full or full, replace it with a new ink collector unit.
For details, see page 188 "Replacing an Ink Collector Unit".
