Cleaning the Head
If printed data is blurred or partly missing, clean the print head surface and nozzle. (This is referred to
as head cleaning.)
Follow the procedure below to perform head cleaning.
Notes:
• If the printer is not to be used for a week or more, perform head cleaning once a week.
If you do not perform head cleaning, the print head will become clogged. Cleaning the
print head will preserve print quality.
