Cleaning the Printhead
Cleaning the Printhead
If printing is faint, cleaning the Printhead may improve results.
Choose one of two Printhead cleaning modes (
Head Cleaning A
or
Head Cleaning B
), depending on the prob-
lem to resolve.
•
Head Cleaning A
Use this mode if printing is faint or contains foreign substances. This method of cleaning consumes the least
amount of ink.
It takes about four minutes to complete.
•
Head Cleaning B
Use this mode if no ink is ejected at all, or if
Head Cleaning A
does not solve the problem.
It takes about five minutes to complete.
Important
•
Do not remove the Maintenance Cartridge or ink tanks during either
Head Cleaning A
or
Head Cleaning B
.
Ink may leak or an error may occur.
•
If printing does not improve even if you execute
Head Cleaning B
, try repeating
Head Cleaning B
once or twice. If this
still does not improve printing, the Printhead may have reached the end of its useful life. Contact your Canon dealer for
assistance.
Note
•
By default, nozzles are checked at fixed intervals.
Configure the settings on the Control Panel menu in
Nozzle Check
.
(See "Menu Settings.")
