15.3.2 Cleaning the ink cartridge manually
Caution! Improper cleaning can damage the ink cartridge and render it
useless. Note the following hints to avoid damage to the print system:
• In case of print quality issues, always run the automatic cleaning functions
first. Read chapter 15.3.1 on page 129.
• You should manually clean the ink cartridge in exceptional cases only
where intensive cleaning fails to restore the normal print quality.
• For cleaning, make sure to use a soft, lint free cloth moistened with demin-
eralized water. Small fibers could clog the nozzles. Too hard or dry cloths
could scratch the nozzle plate. Such scratches render the ink cartridge
useless because they prevent the ink-jet from being correctly positioned
during printing.
• Never use any chemical cleansers.
Removing the cartridge
• Open the M
ENU.
• Choose I
NK CARTRIDGE.
• Choose C
HANGE CARTRIDGE.
• Remove the ink cartridge.
For details, please refer to chapter
“Changing the ink cartridges”, starting on
page 135.
Cleaning
• Moisten a lint free cloth with demineralized
water.
You can also use distilled water or normal tap
water if demineralized water is not available.
The minerals contained in tap water could,
however, leave residues in the print head.
For best cleaning results, use FP contact
cleaner and cleaning cloths contained in the
clean & renew cleaning kit offered by FP.
