Maintaining Your
MultiPASS C50
Cleaning and Testing the BJ Cartridge Print Head
The print head in the BJ print cartridge contains nozzles through which
ink is propelled onto the paper. To maintain the best possible print
quality, these nozzles need to be cleaned from time to time. Your
MultiPASS C50 is equipped with a print head cleaning function that
does this.
If your printouts become faint or streaked, or if their quality otherwise
decreases, clean the print head as described below.
N
If your printing is faded, you can often correct the problem by adjusting
the print density (contrast) and printing speed. (For instructions, see the
MultiPASS Desktop Manager User’s Guide .) Try this before cleaning the
print head.
C
Cleaning the print head uses a small amount of ink. Cleaning too often
significantly reduces the amount of ink in the cartridge, so clean only
when necessary.
1. Make sure the MultiPASS C50 is plugged in.
2. Press FUNCTION .
3. Use

❑
The MultiPASS C50 beeps once when cleaning is finished, and
returns to standby mode.
5. Check whether cleaning corrected the problem by printing the
nozzle check pattern. See page 9-8.
6. If necessary, repeat this procedure up to four more times (giving five
cleanings in all). If the problem persists after this, install a new BJ
cartridge. See “Replacing the BJ Cartridge” on page 9-12.
