S200 Quick Start Guide

Printing Maintenance

To clean the printhead in Mac OS:

Make sure the printer is on.

2. In a software application, click File, then Page Setup.

3. Click Utilities. The Canon S200 Printer Utility window will appear.

4. Select Cleaning from the drop-down

menu, then click the Cleaning icon.

5. When a conﬁrmation message is

displayed, click OK. The printer will

clean the printhead.

6. After the cleaning, print a nozzle

check pattern to check the results.

See “Printing a Nozzle Check

Pattern” on page 25.

7. If there is no change in the nozzle check pattern after cleaning, perform a

printhead deep cleaning by choosing Cleaning from the drop-down menu and

clicking the Deep Cleaning icon. When ﬁnished, print a nozzle check pattern

to verify that the printhead is clean.

If the printhead is not clean after deep cleaning, repeat steps 1–5

two more times. If the printhead is still not clean, contact the

Customer Care Center. (See page 38.)
