Setting Automatic Cleaning
You can set items so that the head cleaning is automatically performed when printing has been completed for
the set length.
When printing has been completed, the machine measures the length of a medium printed after the previous
head cleaning and performs the cleaning automatically if necessary.
The machine can perform a stable printing operation with its heads always kept clean.
The first cleaning is performed immediately before the first printing after the machine is started. Then
subsequent cleaning is performed every printing on the specified length of media.
When operation interval is 1000 mm (example)
