Page 118 Examining the Nozzle Check Pattern Examine the nozzle check pattern, and clean the print head if necessary. 1. Check if there are missing lines in the pattern C or horizontal streaks in the pattern D. A: No missing lines/No horizontal streaks B: Lines are missing/Horizontal streaks are present 2.

Page 120 Cleaning the Print Head Clean the print head if lines are missing or if horizontal streaks are present in the printed nozzle check pattern. Cleaning unclogs the nozzles and restores the print head condition. Cleaning the print head consumes ink, so clean the print head only when necessary. You need to prepare: a sheet of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper Check that printer is turned on.
Page 121 Examine the nozzle check pattern. Note • If the problem is not resolved after cleaning the print head twice, • clean the print head deeply.
Page 122 Deep Print Head Cleaning If print quality does not improve by the standard cleaning of the print head, clean the print head deeply. Cleaning the print head deeply consumes more ink than the standard cleaning of the print head, so clean the print head deeply only when necessary.
Page 123 The pattern print confirmation screen will appear. 7. Select Yes. The nozzle check pattern will be printed. 8. When the completion message appears, select OK. Examine the nozzle check pattern. If the problem is not resolved, turn off the power and clean the print head deeply again after 24 hours. Do not unplug the power cord when turning off the power.
