Basic Procedures

Cleaning the Printhead

If the nozzles become blocked, cleaning the printhead may
recover optimum printer operation.

Note

When you set

Nozzle Check

, the printer performs a

nozzle check and recovery automatically for every
page specified for printing. Before shipping a printer,
the setting is set for 10 Pages.

Types of Printhead Cleaning

There are two methods for printhead cleaning.

Head Cleaning A:

Execute when printing appears uneven, or when the
printhead is dirty. This cleaning method consumes the
least amount of ink.

Head Cleaning A

requires about 1

minute.

Head Cleaning B:

Perform this cleaning if no ink is coming out of the print-
head or if

Head Cleaning A

did not correct the problem.

Head Cleaning B

requires about 3 minutes.

Printhead Cleaning Procedures

Follow this procedure to clean the printhead. The procedure
is almost the same for each cleaning method.
If one execution of

Head Cleaning A

does not correct the

problem, perform

Head Cleaning B

. If

Head Cleaning B

does not correct the problem, repeat

Head Cleaning B

two

or three times. If the printer operation does not recover after
performing

Head Cleaning B

, the printhead may be at the

end of its service life. Call for service or contact the dealer
where you purchased the printer. (
