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.

  1. Check that printer is turned on.

  2. Press and hold the Stop button and release it when the Alarm lamp flashes 3 times.

  3. Press the Black button or the Color button.

    The printer starts cleaning the print head deeply.

    The cleaning will be complete when the ON lamp lights after flashing.

    Do not perform any other operations until the printer completes the deep cleaning of the print head. This takes about 3 minutes.

  4. Check the print head condition.

    To check the print head condition, print the nozzle check pattern.

If the problem is not resolved, turn off the power and clean the print head deeply again after 24 hours.
