[131] Maintenance Station Switches
Verify that the ink temperature is at least 40° Centigrade (104° Fahrenheit) before you begin
printhead maintenance.
Procedure
1. Slide the maintenance station drawer out from under the carriage.
2. Press and release switch 1 to initiate a purge. The carriage will lower to its purge height and ink
falls from the printheads.
3. Wait until the ink slows down, then press switch 2 to raise the carriage.
IMPORTANT
Be careful not to snag the coiled suction-head hose when removing the suction-head from
the holder.

Press switch 3 to turn on the suction pump. Pick up the suction-head from the tray at the left end
of the maintenance station. Wipe the suction-head with a new, clean lint-free wipe to remove any
particles that could damage the nozzles in the printheads.

NOTE
In the next step, start with the left printhead and work to the right as this limits the
possibility that drops of ink will fall onto the coiled hose. Also, do not push up too hard on
the printhead as you may dislodge it and this will require a service call to fix.
5.
Slide the suction-head slowly along the entire length of each printhead at a speed of
approximately 8mm per second (8 seconds per printhead). The suction-head slides on stainless
steel strips on the printhead. It may be necessary to repeat this step in the following cases:
