Wiping the

Printheads

Wipe the printheads only if you have run the cleaning printheads test to clean the printheads and the print quality is not satisfactory. Wiping the printheads removes dried ink from the printheads.

1

Move the print cartridge carrier into the installation

 

position. See the section “To Position the Print Cartridge

 

Carrier” (page 4-3)for more information.

2

Remove the print cartridges. See the procedure “To Replace

 

the Print Cartridges” (page 4-4) for more information.

3

Use a clean, damp cloth to wipe gently the entire copper

 

contact area and the printheads as shown. To dissolve

 

dried ink, hold the damp cloth against the printheads for

 

about three seconds. Gently blot and wipe dry.

 

When cleaning the color print cartridge, wipe the

 

printheads in one direction so the colors do not

 

mix

4

Allow the copper contact area to dry.
