Cleaning of the head surface as an
emergency measure
When problems such as dot drop-out are
not improved even if cleaning is performed
several times, you can clean the head surface
as an emergency measure . Since the head
surface (nozzle surface) is an extremely
delicate mechanism, make sure to perform the
operations carefully and deliberately .
Note that this operation is an emergency
measure . Depending on how operations are
performed, normal areas may be damaged and
symptoms may be worsened . If you have any
questions, contact your authorized Roland DG
Corp . dealer .
