If the output indicates that another head cleaning is required,
perform the head cleaning procedure from the Device
Properties screen where you selected the nozzle check
option. If the nozzle continues to be bad, use the Device
Properties screen and scroll down, select Initial Charge. When
that is completed, do another Nozzle Check. If still dissatisfied
with the results, go to Correcting a Bad Nozzle Check
Condition in your Maintenance and Troubleshooting Guide .
Cleaning the Print Head
Before using the Direct Jet printer for the first time or if any
of the nozzles in the print head are not spraying, it is
necessary to perform a head cleaning operation. You can do
this in the same Device Properties screen you used to
perform the nozzle check above.
Alternately, you can clean the heads from the printer itself.
Make sure the print engine is powered up and is ready (with
a solid green LED). Raise the print engine to approximately 1"
above the substrate. Move the table all the way to the right.
Press and hold
until the green LED in starts
flashing.
The printer will perform its head cleaning procedure. Wait until the green LED is lit solid before doing
anything else with the printer.
