Cleaning the Print Head
The printer periodically cleans the print head for you, so
normally you should not need to run a cleaning cycle.
However, if print quality diminishes, run the print head
cleaning cycle to unclog the print head so the nozzles deliver
ink properly.
Follow these steps to clean either print head:
1. Make sure the printer is turned on and not printing.
2. Press the
Cleaning
button. The cleaning cycle takes about
one minute, during which the carriage moves and you hear
the printer recharging the print head. The
Power
light
flashes throughout the cycle and then stays on when it is
finished.
3. Turn off the printer.
4. Hold down the
Load/Eject
button as you turn the printer
back on. This prints a demonstration page so you can see if
your print quality has improved.
