(supplied with the SC-S50600 series; optional with other models) is

printer hardware is performed.

Use in 2 Heads Mode in most situations.
For example, if there is a clogged nozzle in a single print head and the clog
cannot be cleared after repeated head cleaning, you continue printing
using the unclogged print head. This feature is convenient because
printing can continue during work time, and Head Washing and other
maintenance can be done after work.
Check the check pattern printed in the Nozzle Check, and then select the
unclogged head.
