Description
This article explains how to execute a deep cleaning for the PIXMA TS302 print head from a Windows PC.
Solution
Deep Cleaning is more thorough than cleaning. Perform deep cleaning when two Cleaning attempts do not resolve the print head problem.
-
Open the Canon IJ Printer Assistant Tool.
-
Click 
Deep Cleaning.
When the Deep Cleaning dialog box opens, select the ink group for which deep cleaning is to be performed.
Click Initial Check Items to display the items you need to check before performing deep cleaning.
-
Execute deep cleaning.
Make sure that the printer is on and then click Execute.
Click OK when the confirmation message appears.
Print head deep cleaning starts.
-
Complete deep cleaning.
Click OK when the confirmation message is displayed.
The Nozzle Check dialog box will open.
-
Check the results
To check whether the print quality has improved, click Print Check Pattern. To cancel the check process, click Cancel.
Important
- Deep Cleaning consumes a larger amount of ink than Cleaning.
Cleaning the print head frequently will rapidly deplete your printer's ink supply. Consequently, perform cleaning only when necessary.
