Step 6: Performing Normal Cleaning
If, after viewing the results of the printing test, dot drop-out or dot displacement is still present, perform normal cleaning.
-
Press the [CLEAN] button.
Normal cleaning starts.
- Load the paper for the printing test onto the flat table.
- Performing a Printing Test.
-
Check to make sure the dot drop-out or dot displacement has been corrected.
If the problem persists, try performing normal cleaning again. If the printer has been used for a long period, dot drop-outs may not be fixed even after performing normal cleaning two or three times. If this is the case, clean using a different method.
IMPORTANTUV ink will harden. It may adhere to the print head and solidify. If left alone, ink may clog the print heads and cause problems including printer malfunctions. Clean the head manually when printing frequently with the print head at a distance from the print surface. This is called manual cleaning. To prevent clogging of the print heads, you may have to perform manual cleaning each time you print.
