Cleaning Printing Test

Before printing, use Nozzle Drop-out Test to check whether ink is discharged from the print heads correctly. If 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.
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.

Powerful Cleaning also has the effect of improving uneven colors.

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.
