Important:
❏ Do not open the scanner unit or turn o the printer during head cleaning. If the head cleaning is incomplete, you
may not be able to print.
❏ Head cleaning consumes ink and should not be performed more than necessary.
❏ When ink is low, you may not be able to clean the print head.
❏ If print quality has not improved aer repeating nozzle check and head cleaning 3 times, wait for at least 12
hours without printing, and then run the nozzle check again and repeat the head cleaning if necessary. We
recommend turning o the printer by using the
P
button. If print quality has still not improved, run Power
Cleaning.
❏ To prevent the print head from drying out, do not unplug the printer while the power is on.
