the front panel, indicate whether there are problems with them. The sorts of problems to look for are:

„White streaks or bands in the solid blocks.

8If you indicate that there are problems in the blocks of color, the Printer will try and clean the Printheads that have the problem. A Printhead can be cleaned up to 3 times in this way after which it will need to be replaced (you will be informed via the front panel).

9After cleaning the Printheads, the Printer reprints the Diagnostic Print A, and you need to repeat the previous steps.

10If you indicate that the blocks of color in Diagnostic Print A are OK, the Printer will print Diagnostic Print B.

Ignore these solid bars

11For each color in the pattern in Diagnostic Print B, you are asked about the quality - look especially for missing lines. If you indicate that a color is defective, the Printer tries to clean that printhead.

12After cleaning the Printheads, the Printer reprints the Diagnostic Print B, and you need to repeat the previous steps.
