The XJ128 printhead should not be stored outside of its original packaging. It is recommended that
the printhead be stored in its packaging until required and that installation time is kept to a minimum.

the appropriate Xaar cleaning solution. The cleaning solution should then be purged out of the
printhead with clean, dry filtered air. This process is detailed in the Ink and Printhead User Guide
