Cleaning during Printing
This machine counts the hours of printing, and when the accumulated printing hours reach a specified time, automatic cleaning is performed. When cleaning finishes, the accumulated printing time is reset. This cleaning can also be performed during printing, so print quality may be affected.
To avoid cleaning during printing, first obtain the time until cleaning is performed. Next, use the software RIP to confirm the required time for printing. If the required time for printing is greater than the time until cleaning, perform Cleaning and Count Clear prior to printing. This will cause the accumulated printing time to be reset. Alternatively, change the print quality to reduce the time required for printing. Either of these methods can be used to prevent cleaning from being performed while printing is in progress.
1. Confirm the accumulated printing time.
If the remaining time until cleaning is performed is not displayed on the home screen, change the settings from the menu to display this time.
