Printing Maintenance

Print Head Deep Cleaning

If print quality does not improve by standard Print Head Cleaning, try Print Head Deep Cleaning, which is a more powerful process. Note that cleaning the Print Head causes waste ink to be absorbed in the waste ink absorber. Print Head Deep Cleaning consumes more ink than standard Print Head Cleaning, so perform this procedure only when necessary.

Ensure that the Inner Cover is closed.
