<Note>
・
The menu [ GT-341 mode ] is for GT-381/GT-361 with no White Print Heads mounted. If you select this menu
with White Print Heads mounted, the White Print Heads will surely get damaged by no maintenance.
・
Do not run the printer when you mount Capping Cartridge. The Print Heads may be seriously damaged.
・
Keep the Maintenance operation once in every two weeks, even if the printer is under A or B conditions to keep
the printer in good conditions.
・
Use Wash Liquid for cleaning GT-3. You can use the one in the Nozzle Cleaning Kit, the Maintenance Cleaning
Kit, or you can purchase one. It is recommended to have one with you.
