For Macintosh users:
1. Make sure that the printer is on, and the
B
and
A
ink out
lights are off.
Note:
The print head cannot be cleaned if the
B
or
A
ink out light is
flashing or on. Replace the ink cartridges as needed before
proceeding.
2. Choose
Utility
from the Print dialog box.
3. Click the
Head Cleaning
button.
4. Follow the on-screen messages.
The
P
power light flashes while the printer performs the
cleaning cycle. This operation takes about two minutes to
complete.
c
Caution:
Never turn off the printer while
P
power light is flashing.
Doing so may damage the printer.
5. When the
P
power light stops flashing, click the
Confirmation
button in the Head Cleaning dialog box to
print a nozzle check pattern and to reset the cleaning cycle.
Use the check pattern to confirm the head is clean. See page
8-27 to see a sample of the nozzle check pattern.
In the check pattern, if you find that any segments are missing
from the test lines, you may need to repeat the head cleaning
and print the nozzle check pattern again. If print quality hasn’t
improved after repeating this procedure four or five times, try
other recommendations listed in this chapter. If the print
quality still has not improved, contact your dealer.
