Important Notes on This Procedure
Before attempting this operation, remove any media.
To prevent the heads from drying out, nish this procedure in 30 minutes or less. A warning beep
sounds after 30 minutes.
Never use any implement other than the included cleaning stick. Cotton swabs or other lintpro-
ducing items may damage the heads. If you use up the cleaning stick, purchase a new one from
your authorized Roland DG Corp. dealer.
Never immerse a cleaning stick that has already been used to perform cleaning in the cleaning
liquid. Doing so may degrade the cleaning liquid.
Do not put the cleaning stick used for cleaning into the cleaning uid. It will deteriorate the
uid.
Never rub the nozzle surface of the print head.
Stroke the sponges very gently, applying as little pressure as possible. Never rub, scrape, or crush
them.
When a warning beep sounds during cleaning
