Cleaning the Printhead
The printer provides three automated cleaning cycles for the printhead: Normal,
Extended, and Extreme. Always start with the Normal cleaning cycle and proceed to the
next level only if print quality does not improve.
1. On the control panel, select (Config) > Printhead > Clean > Normal.
2. After the cleaning is completed, try printing again.
3. If issues persist, perform again selecting the Extended cleaning cycle. After cleaning
is complete, try printing again.
4. If issues still persist, perform an Extreme cleaning.
NOTE: Extreme cleaning should not be performed unless absolutely necessary, as it
may shorten the life of the printhead.
5. If issues still persist, the printhead should be replaced.
