Restart the White Ink printing
Reinstall the White Ink by referring the steps in “C. Restart after 2 weeks’ storage” in this chapter.
C. Restart after storage:
(1) Turn ON the printer and mount the White Ink Cartridges instead of either the Maintenance Cartridge or
Maintenance Solution-mixed White Ink Cartridge. If the Tubes are filled with Maintenance Solution without air
inside, then mount the White Ink Cartridges and load White Ink by referring "Loading White Ink after Tube
Cleaning" in "6-2-3. White Tube Cleaning (Once a week)". If some air can be found in the Tubes, insert the
Maintenance Cartridge with Maintenance Solution in the bottle (more than 250 ml per Print Head) and select
[ Maintenance ] > [ Initial Cleaning ] and load the Maintenance Solution first. Follow the indications on the
Display and load the White Ink by replacing to the White Ink Cartridge.
(2) After loading the White Ink, print Nozzle Check Pattern for both Color and White in [ Test Print ] menu to find
out the print quality. If the print quality is not good enough, especially Color side, clean the surface of the Print
Heads by referring "7-2-6. Cleaning the Print Head Nozzles".
<Note>
The Auto Cleaning of Color side will be Powerful Cleaning after you leave the printer unused for more than two
weeks.
