(1) Surroundings of the heads ("Cleaning the Head and the Area around It" Chapter 4 of
the Operation Manual)
1
Move the carriage to the left and open the
maintenance cover.
• Refer to the Step 1 to 5 of Chapter 4 “Cleaning the Head
and the Area around It” of the user’s manual to perform
the operation.
2
Soak the UJ Cleaning swab or the waste cloth in the maintenance cleaning liquid and
wipe off an accumulated ink on the side of the head and on the bottom surface of the
slider.
• Scrape them off with clean stick etc. In this case, never rub the nozzle portion of the head.
• When possible, use the UJ Cleaning swab (SPC-0386) for cleaning around the head/ capping station/ wiper.
Using the other cotton bud may attach lint, then it may damage the machine.
• Be sure to perform maintenance for the ink cap and the wiper of capping station every day. If you leave it
dirty, dirt may adhere to the nozzle surface, or, dust and dry ink may be rubbed against the nozzle. It may
cause discharge defect.
• Clean the bottom of carriage every day so that it will not get dirt from inks or dusts. If you leave it dirty, dust
and dry ink may be rubbed against the nozzle at wiping operation when performing head cleaning.
• When you clean the carriage bottom surface, fully be careful not to rub the nozzle surface.
• The heads and their surroundings are the parts most liable to be tainted in this machine and if
tainted, it could cause adverse effects to the functions of the machine and the results of the
printings. Moreover, as the head itself uses very fine mechanisms, sufficient precautions are
required for the care and maintenances.
Clean the side surface of the head (shown
in deep gray) with a cleaning swab.
The nozzle part (Never
touch it.)
Clean with a cleaning swab or a waste cloth.
