• Prepare a new maintenance box if the current maintenance box is low on space. Because ink used
during cleaning does not evaporate quickly, repeated head cleanings can fill the maintenance box.
• You cannot clean the print head if the temperature conditions are not within specifications. See the link
below.
Note: When Auto Cleaning is enabled, the nozzles are checked after head cleaning and, if clogging is
detected, auto cleaning is performed. Depending on the status of the nozzles, this process can take up
to 32 minutes.
