7.3 Maintenance Methods
Ink Maintenance
If ink constituents are sedimented, the ink density may become uneven. We recommend shaking the ink
every three days to ensure consistent printing.
l
Shake the ink.
1
Shake the Ink eco-case slowly at least 10 times.
• Shake the Ink eco-case attached to the ink supply unit back and forth by holding its top and tilting
it to the front.
• Be sure to shake the ink eco-case back and forth by holding its top. The ink eco-case may
become detached if pulled upward.
Cap Rubber Cleaning
The cap prevents the print head nozzle surface from drying out. Continuing to use a dirty cap may affect ink
take-up and lead to print defects (e.g., nozzle clogging, deflection).
• Be careful to avoid leaving fragments from the cleaning stick behind when cleaning. These
fragments will increase the risk of printing defects (e.g., nozzle clogging or deflection).
