Description

This article explains how to execute a deep print head cleaning for the PIXMA TS202 from a Mac.

 

Solution

Deep cleaning is more thorough than cleaning. Perform deep cleaning when two Cleaning attempts do not resolve the print head problem.
 

  1. Select Utilities from the Remote UI.
     

  2. Click Deep cleaning.

    Before running the deep cleaning, check the following items:

    Check whether the printer is on and open the printer's cover.
    Check the following items for each ink. Then, if necessary, perform Deep cleaning.

    • Is there ink remaining in the cartridge?
       
    • Did you push in the ink cartridge completely until you heard a clicking sound?
       
    • If the orange tape is there, has it been peeled off completely?
      Any remaining tape will hinder ink output.
       
    • Did you install the ink cartridges in their correct positions?
       
  3. Make sure that the printer is on and then click Yes.
    Print head deep cleaning starts.
     

  4. Next, the message for nozzle check pattern printing is displayed.
     

  5. Check the results.
    To check whether the print quality has improved, click Yes. To cancel the check process, click No.


 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.
