Print Head Cleaning
If missing lines or white stripes are found in the printed nozzle check pattern, perform Print
Head cleaning to unclog the Print Head Nozzles. Cleaning the Print Head consumes ink, so
perform Print Head cleaning only when necessary.
1Ensure that the printer is turned on.
2Open the Printer Properties dialog box.
See "Opening the Printer Properties Dialog Box Directly from the Start Menu" on
page 29.
Note The Print Head can also be cleaned by pressing the RESUME/CANCEL button
on the printer.
1. Ensure that the printer is turned on.
2. Hold down the RESUME/CANCEL button until the POWER lamp flashes
once, and then release it.
If you pressed the Cleaning button on the Examining the Nozzle Check
Pattern screen displayed after the nozzle check pattern was printed, start
the Print Head cleaning procedure from 3-(3).
