Item Function
Nozzle Check
A nozzle check pattern to check the Printhead nozzles status is
printed. A head cleaning can be run if necessary. Figure 1-7 shows
the nozzle check pattern printed by the printer.
Head Cleaning
Runs a printhead cleaning. The cleaning cannot be made when low
ink level is detected. In such case, an ink low error is displayed
instead of running the cleaning.
Head Alignment
An adjustment to ensure the bi-directional print quality. Follow the
instructions displayed on the LCD to carry out the adjustment. The
default value for each of the four modes is “5”, and can be changed
within the range of 1 to 9.
Change Ink Cartridge
Runs an ink cartridge replacement sequence. The sequence also can
be run from the Ink Levels menu or by following the instructions on
the LCD when an ink-related error occurs.
Thick Paper
Setting to “On” widens the platen gap to reduce friction between the
printhead and thick paper. The setting is applied until the printer
power is turned off, and returns to the default (Off) at the next
power-on.
• Off: normal platen gap is applied.
• On: the wider platen gap is applied.
Language Changes languages.
Screen Saver Settings
By setting to the “Memory Card Data”, the printer automatically
runs a slide show using images in a memory card as a screen saver
when no control panel operation has been made for 180 seconds in
standby mode. If no memory card is inserted, or when this is set to
“Off”, the LCD display does not change.
C A U T I O N
If the printer power is turned Off during printing the
adjustment pattern or entering the adjustment value, the
pattern print is canceled, and the values return to the default.
While the adjustment is carried out, the printer does not goes
into the panel power save mode.
