Cleaning the Printhead:
If printing is faint, cleaning the print head may improve results.
1. Flick Home screen and tap Maintenance. The Maintenance screen appears.
2. Tap Print Head Cleaning
3. Choose one of three printhead cleaning modes (Cleaning, Deep cleaning, or System cleaning) depending on the problem to resolve.
Use this mode if printing is faint or contains foreign substances. This method of cleaning consumes the least amount of ink.
It gales about 8 minutes.
Use this mode if no ink is ejected at all or if Cleaning does not solve the problem.
It takes about 8 or 9 minutes.
Use this if printing is not improved after Deep cleaning. System cleaning consumables a very large amount of ink. Performing this frequently consumes the ink faster. Perform this only when needed.
It takes about 10 minutes.
4. Tap ink group to be cleaned.
- All colors
- Pattern 1: MBK1/BK/MBK2
- Pattern 2: Y/M/C
Note:
Check the nozzle check pattern and select an ink group for which to perform cleaning as needed. You can clean all printhead or select pattern 1, or 2 to clean the printhead with a clogged nozzle.
