7.Repeat the back and forth motion several times to insure that the head is completely clean. Press harder if necessary.

8.Repeat steps 6 and 7 if you have a cleaning pad.

9.Wait for the printhead to dry thoroughly before reloading the ribbon.

CAUTION: Since water is used in this procedure drying time is longer than when using a head cleaning pad. Make sure that you let the printhead dry completely.

10.Reload the ribbon spool once the printhead is completely dry by following the instructions beginning on page 1±17.

11.Close the printer cover.

12.Turn on the printer.
