color. This consumes a lot of ink. This does not
indicate a problem with the printer.
Head Cleaning B consumes a lot of ink. This does
not indicate a problem with the printer. Unless the
printer has been moved or stored for a long period
or you are troubleshooting Printhead problems, we
recommend not performing Head Cleaning B , to the
extent possible.
After initial installation or at the first-time use after
transfer, ink flows into the system between the Ink

problem with the printer.
The printer has not detected the
new Maintenance Cartridge that
was used to replace the old one.
Many full-page color images are
printed.
Head Cleaning B is used often.
You have just finished initial
