Manual Cleaning Method

Perform manual cleaning:

  • When the notification The time for manual cleaning has arrived. appears.
  • Before sending the print data if you want to perform unmanned printing at night.
  • When dot drop-out or ink drip issues that cannot be improved with powerful cleaning occur.
CAUTION

Do not perform cleaning immediately after printing has finished. (Wait approximately 15 minutes after printing finishes.)

The area around the UV-LED device is hot and may cause burns.

WARNING

Be sure to perform operations as specified by the instructions, and never touch any area not specified in the instructions.

Sudden movement of the machine may cause injury.

Important notes on this procedure

  • Before performing this operation, remove any objects.
  • To prevent the print heads from drying out, finish this procedure in 30 minutes or less. A warning beep sounds after 30 minutes.
  • Never use any implements other than the included cleaning sticks. Cotton swabs or other lint-producing items may damage the print heads.
  • Never use any implements other than the included cleaning sheet.
  • Do not use cleaning liquid other than the included cleaning liquid.
  • Be sure to use new cleaning sticks. Reusing cleaning sticks will adversely affect the printing results.

  • Do not put a cleaning stick that has been used for cleaning into the cleaning liquid. Doing so will deteriorate the cleaning liquid.
