1.5.2 IF THE MACHINE IS NOT USED FREQUENTLY…
For more information about printing Nozzle Checks, print head cleaning, and flushing,
please refer to Section "4. Troubleshooting.”
1. Turn the power off, disconnect the USB cable, and unplug the power cord.
2. To prevent the print nozzles from drying out, periodically print something.
3. Turn the machine on for a few minutes once a month.
4. After storage or a long period of disuse, use the printer driver to print a Nozzle Check
pattern and then clean the print head nozzles if necessary. (Be sure to print a Nozzle
Check between each cleaning.)
5. Do print head flushing if three consecutive cleanings do not solve the problem.
6. If flushing does not solve the problem, allow the printer to sit idle for about 10 minutes
then print another Nozzle Check.
7. If the Nozzle Check print is still not satisfactory, allow the printer to sit idle for at least 8
hours and then print another Nozzle Check.
1.5.3 MOVING THE PRINTER

2. Disconnect all cables (USB, Ethernet, power cord).
3. Pull the scanner release lever and raise the scanner unit.
