Cleaning for light stripes: printhead

Approximate time to complete: 3-10 minutes

If your prints have 1/10 in. (2.5 mm) lengthwise stripes that are the wrong color or have missing colors, you can correct the problem by cleaning the printhead. The printer automatically executes a printhead cleaning sequence when you run the Clean:Light Stripes routine from the front panel.
