|
|||
| Cleaning | Printing Test |
Before printing, use Nozzle Drop-out Test to check whether ink is discharged from the print heads correctly. If nozzle drop-out (dot drop-out) is present, perform cleaning appropriate for the severity of the drop-out. If faulty ink discharge cannot be improved, the problematic nozzle can be identified with Nozzle Mask Test, making it possible to stop using this nozzle. You can configure the Printing Test to dry the media with the dryer after the printing test or to not do so. |
||
| Normal Cleaning |
If dot drop-out or dot displacement occurs, select the nozzle and then perform cleaning of the print heads. If the problem cannot be fixed, perform more powerful cleaning. If the media has already been set up, the After cleaning, perform a printing test. menu appears. When this is turned on, a printing test is performed after cleaning. |
|||
| Medium Cleaning | ||||
| Powerful Cleaning | ||||
| Manual Cleaning | Use cleaning liquid and a cleaning stick to clean the area around the print heads. | |||
| Maintenance | Wiper Replacement | Replace the wipers. | ||
| Blade Replacement | Replaces the blade used in cutting. | |||
| Separating Knife Replacement | Replaces the separating knife used in media separation. | |||
| Flushing Sponge Replacement | To maintain print quality, replace the flushing sponges that absorb the ink discharged from the heads. | |||
| Ink Renewal | Perform this operation when ink discharge issues or uneven colors are not resolved even after Normal Cleaning, Medium Cleaning, Powerful Cleaning, and Manual Cleaning. However, this operation consumes a large amount of ink and may damage the print heads, so do not perform it more than necessary. | |||
| Ink Circulation*2 | Circulates ink to prevent uneven color issues with white ink. | |||
| Light Choke Cleaning | Use this operation to stabilize output when uneven color issues are not resolved even after shaking the ink cartridge to mix the ink or performing Ink Circulation. However, this operation consumes a large amount of ink and may damage the print heads, so do not perform it more than necessary. | |||
| Drain Bottle | Use this menu to discard discharged fluid at any desired time, regardless of any notifications or errors. | |||
| Automatic Maintenance | Set the maintenance items that are performed automatically and the Type and Frequency according to the printer service environment, types of products that are frequently output, and other factors. A maximum of five settings for automatic maintenance can be saved. | |||
