Print Head Cleaning
Clean the print head if you suspect that the nozzles might be clogged.
Head cleaning can be performed either from the printer drivers or from the printer itself.
Note ➤Cleaning the head consumes ink, so perform head cleaning only when
necessary.
Do not perform any other operations during the head cleaning. This takes about 30
seconds.
After print head cleaning finishes, print the nozzle check pattern to verify that the print
heads are clean.
