Replacing the Cap Top

The cap top is a part that prevents ink clogging due to the print heads drying out. The cap top sticks close to the print head surface and sucks out the ink, thereby preventing the print heads from drying out.

To maintain stable printing at all times, replace the cap top once every 6 months.

For information about purchasing cap tops, contact your authorized dealer.
