Establishes the threshold for the paper value (0 - 255), where 170 is the default 
setting. 
REFL PAPER 
LEVEL 
Establishes the threshold for the reflective value (0 - 255), where 170 is the 
default setting.

PRINTHEAD 
CLEANING 
Controls the automatic cleaning alert and function, where:  
CLEAN HEAD 
SCHEDULE 
Specifies the inch (or centimeter) count at which to clean the printhead, and if 
exceeded three times, declare a Head Cleaning Fault.  (Note that the specified 
count [0 - 200 inches] will be multiplied by one thousand, and that zero [the 
default setting] will disable the function.)   
CLEAN HEAD 
COUNTER 
Indicates the number of inches (or centimeters) since a cleaning was last 
initiated. 
RESET COUNTER  Resets the Clean Head Counter to zero to restart the Clean Head Schedule. 
CLEAN HEAD NOW  Initiates the cleaning process and resets the Clean Head Counter.
