Note:
❏ Print head cleaning uses both color and black ink. To avoid wasting

ink, clean the print head only if print quality declines (for example,
if the printout is blurry or the color is incorrect or missing).

❏ Use the Nozzle Check utility first to confirm that the print head

needs to be cleaned. This saves ink.

❏ When the

error light is flashing or on, you cannot clean the print

head. Replace the appropriate ink cartridge first.

❏ Do not start the Head Cleaning or Nozzle Check utility while

printing is in progress, or your printout may be marred.

Follow the steps below to clean the print head using the control
panel buttons.

1. Make sure that the Processing light is on and that the

error

light is off.

Note:
If the

error light is flashing or on, you cannot clean the head and

this operation will start the ink cartridge replacement procedure. If
you do not want to replace an ink cartridge at this moment, press
the

maintenance button to return the print head to its home

position.

2. Hold down the

maintenance button for three seconds.
