Troubleshooting

When nozzle missing occurs due to ink mixture or aeration

Push out ink and air in the head from the port.

Use this when ink has been mixed in the port, or nozzle missing due to aeration occurs.

In addition, if nozzle missing cannot be solved even if you performed cleaning because it has not been used for long time (for about two weeks), perform air purge.
