Replacing FINE Cartridges
When FINE Cartridges run out of ink, replace them using the following steps.
See "Printing the Nozzle Check Pattern" and perform any necessary maintenance operation.
Print Head Cleaning
Clean the Print Head if lines are missing or if white streaks appear in the printed nozzle check pattern. Cleaning unclogs the nozzles and restores the print head condition. Note that cleaning the Print Head causes used ink to be absorbed in the ink absorber. Cleaning the Print Head consumes ink, so perform Print Head Cleaning only when necessary.
1. Make sure that the machine is turned on.
2. Start Print Head Cleaning......

Print Head Deep Cleaning
If print quality does not improve by standard Print Head Cleaning, try Print Head Deep Cleaning, which is a more powerful process. Note that cleaning the Print Head causes used ink to be absorbed in the ink absorber. Print Head Deep Cleaning consumes more ink than standard Print Head Cleaning, so perform this procedure only when necessary.
1. Make sure that the machine is turned on.
