When the operation of the printer is to be suspended for a long
time [CUSTODY WASH]
When the operation of the printer is to be suspended for a week or more, use the [CUSTODY WASH] func-
tion to clean the nozzles in the heads and the ink discharge passage.
After the cleaning, store the printer properly.
STEPS:
1 Make sure that the printer is in LOCAL mode, and then press the [ST.MAINT] key.
If it is in REMOTE mode, press the [REMOTE] key.
2 Select [CUSTODY WASH] by pressing the [] key four times and press the [ENTER]
key.
The carriage will come out of the capping station.
Be sure to wear the supplied goggle and gloves.The ink contains an organic
solvent. If ink settles on your skin, immediately wash it off with water. If you get
ink in your eyes, immediately wash your eyes with a lot of clean water for at
least 15 minutes. In doing so, also wash the backside of eyelids to rinse ink
away completely. Then, consult a doctor as soon as possible.
(When solvent ink is used.)
If there are cartridges that are in [INK NEAR END] or [INK END] status, the noz-
zle cleaning function (ink suction) is not activated. Replace the cartridges that
are in [INK NEAR END] or [INK END] status with ones containing a sufficient
amount of ink.
For cleaning, we recommend the use of the clean stick. If using cotton swab,
remaining lint of the cotton swab may cause printing failure.
