Cleaning the Print Head
Clean the Print Head if lines are missing or if white streaks are present in the printed nozzle check
pattern. Cleaning unclogs the nozzles and restores the print head condition. Cleaning the Print Head
consumes ink, so clean the Print Head only when necessary.
You need to prepare: a sheet of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper
Note

You can also clean the Print Heads of all color ink tanks at the same time from the printer itself using
the
RESUME/CANCEL
button.
1. Make sure that the power is turned on.
2. Hold down the
RESUME/CANCEL
button until the

cleaning will be completed. Print the nozzle check pattern to check the print head condition after
cleaning.
