Purging the Printhead Nozzles

Cleaning the

Printheads

If the printhead is inactive for a period of time, ink may dry in the nozzle. White streaks will then appear in the printed text or graphic.

To obtain better quality, purge the printhead nozzles:

1.Turn on the printer.

2.Feed in paper (for the purged ink to fall on).

3.Press the Menu key; "Enter to Purge" displays on the control panel.

4.Press the Enter key and the printheads purge.

To achieve good print quality, maintenance of the printhead is required. Paper fiber, dust and dried ink can build up on the printhead.

To clean the printhead:

1.Use a lint-free towel with no chemical additives to clean the printhead. Moisten the towel with distilled water. (An abrasive cloth can put scratches on the printhead, preventing ink from coming out of the nozzle properly.)

2.Wipe the cartridge nozzles in the direction of the nozzle rows. Harmful particles on the top of the printhead can be wiped into the nozzles if you are not careful. See the figure below for the proper way to wipe the ink cartridge.
