Print Head Cleaning
The maintenance unit cleans the print heads to prevent them from becoming
clogged with paper dust or other foreign matter.
Cleaning is done occasionally during print jobs and can also be executed
manually by the operator.
The ink collector unit and right ink sump collect waste ink taken from the print
heads by the maintenance unit.
At infrequent intervals, the machine will force the carriage unit to pause over the
left ink sump so that ink can be purged from the print heads to prevent clogging.
This is controlled by the firmware and cannot be done by the operator.
