• When storing cartridges, lay them down flat. If you store cartridges standing upright, pigments may
settle and reduce print quality.
• If you do not use the printer for more than two weeks, print a nozzle check. Alternately, you can also
replace the White ink with cleaning cartridges (Maintenance > Replace White Ink). If the printer is left
without replacing the White ink, the print head nozzles may become clogged.
Note: White ink is consumed during maintenance even when printing only with color ink.

Follow these guidelines as you handle and store printed T-shirts:
• Avoid storing T-shirts in direct sunlight, or in locations that are subject to excessive dust, heat, or
humidity. If T-shirts are stored in a hot place after printing, the printed surface may soften and become
sticky.
• Do not dry clean printed T-shirts.
• Turn printed T-shirts inside out before washing and let them dry inside out.
• To maintain the best quality, printed T-shirts should be air dried. Tumble dryers may reduce image
quality over time.
• Do not use bleach. It may cause discoloration.
• Do not iron directly onto the printed surface.
• Do not use organic solvents, such as alcohol.
• Do not rub the printed surface against vinyl or chloride-based artificial leather. The colors may transfer
to the leather.
• Do not rub surfaces printed with color ink against surfaces printed with White ink; the color may
transfer. If this happens, use a soft cloth or brush with a small amount of household detergent to wipe
away the transferred color.
