Printing / Improving the Print Quality
Cleaning the Print Head
Using the Head Cleaning utility
Using the control panel buttons
If you find that your printouts are unexpectedly faint or some dots are missing, you may be able to solve
these problems by cleaning the print head, which ensures that the nozzles are delivering ink properly.
You can clean the print head from your computer using the Head Cleaning utility in the printer software
or from the CX6500 itself using the control panel buttons.
Note:
●
Print head cleaning uses both color and black inks. To avoid wasting ink, clean the print
head only if the copy quality drops (for example, blurred printout, incorrect or missing
color.)
●
Use the nozzle check first to confirm that the print head needs to be cleaned. This saves
ink.
●
When the Error light is on and a message appears on the LCD panel to prompt you to
replace the ink cartridge or to indicate the ink is low, you cannot clean the print head. In
this case, replace the appropriate ink cartridge first.
