STEPS:
1Make sure that the printer is in LOCAL mode, and then press the [ST.MAINT] key.
If it is in REMOTE mode, press the [REMOTE] key.
2Select [NOZZLE WASH] by pressing the [] key twice and press the [ENTER] key.
The carriage will come out of the capping station.
3Open the right maintenance cover.
Be sure to wear the supplied goggle and gloves.The ink contains an organic
solvent. If ink settles on your skin or gets in your eyes, immediately and com-
pletely wash them off with water. Then, consult a doctor as soon as possible.
(When solvent ink is used)
If nozzle clogging cannot be corrected even after repeating the cleaning proce-
dure described here several times, execute the [FILL UP INK] (Refer to “If noz-
zles cannot be unclogged [FILL UP INK] (p.3-31)” ) , [DISCHARGE&WASH]
(Refer to “[DISCHARGE&WASH] (p.5-6)” ) functions. If the remedies instructed
here do not work, contact your dealer or an office of MIMAKI.
If both of the two cartridges in a set are in [INK NEAR END] or [INK END] status,
the nozzle cleaning function (ink suction) is not activated. Replace the car-
tridges that are in [INK NEAR END] or [INK END] status with ones containing a
sufficient amount of ink.
