Using dedicated washing liquid and a waste cloth, clean the nozzle surface of the head.

• Perform this if discharging defect such as nozzle clogging (slight touching of ink or nozzle missing) cannot be improved even if you performed head cleaning (P.2-22)and nozzle washing ( P.4- 17).

Tools required for Maintenance

• Maintenance kit

• Gloves

• When you usually use photographic fixer, do not leave Wiper for CR in a room filled with vapor of photographic fixer. If you wash the nozzle surface with Wiper for CR left in a room filled with vapor of photographic fixer, ink adhering to the head hardens and it may cause image quality defect that cannot be improved even if you perform head cleaning many times and may cause nozzle clogging.

•Besides photographic fixer, if you use Wiper for CR left in an environment where acidic vapor (acetic acid, muriatic acid, etc.) is generated, the same phenomenon occurs.
