Cleaning Print Cartridges

Cleaning your print cartridges can improve the quality of printing. If your printed page is missing lines or dots or contains ink streaks, clean the print cartridges as described below.

There are two methods to clean the print cartridges:

Print a head cleaning page, which can be done from the operation panel of your product or from the Control Program on your computer screen.

Clean the print cartridge nozzles.

NOTE: Do not clean the print cartridges unnecessarily, as this wastes ink and shortens the life of the print cartridge.
