5.2 Storing the Printer
When storing the printer, make sure to leave the ink cartridges installed and place it on
a horizontal surface, and also inform the user on the following cautions.
When not using the printer for a long time
Turn on the printer at least once a week to let it clean the nozzles and prevent
clogging of the nozzles.
Remove the media. If the media is left set for a long time, nip impression of
the Press Roller may remain on the media, or the media may ripple.
Check that the Printhead is capped properly.
Close all the covers.
When storing the printer for a long time, evacuate the ink and flush the ink
passage. (See “4.12.2 Cleaning (Tube Inner Cleaning)” (p260).)
Before using the printer again
Make sure to print a nozzle check pattern and check for clogging of the printhead.
If any clogging can be seen, carry out a head cleaning.

P O I N T
After performing the head cleaning a few times, try turning off the
printer and leaving it overnight or longer, so that the ink may
dissolve and the clogging might be improved.
