How to Perform Ink Flush

Ink flush consumes a great amount of ink.

Frequent ink flush can rapidly consume ink, so perform ink flush only when necessary.

Important

• Before performing ink flush, check the remaining ink level of all colors. If the remaining ink level is below the single dot (A), refill the ink tank of corresponding color.

  

• When performing an ink flush, check the free space of the maintenance cartridge. Ink flush consumes a lot of ink, and the consumed ink is discharged to the maintenance cartridge. If the free space is low, replace it with a new maintenance cartridge. If the available capacity of the maintenance cartridge is low, a message is displayed and ink flush cannot be performed.
