About Head Cleaning
There are two types of head cleaning. Perform head cleaning according to the result of test
printing.
• Nozzle Cleaning: Low
If there are bending lines or clogged nozzles in the test printing result, perform Nozzle
Cleaning: Low.
• Nozzle Cleaning: High
If there are missing lines or ink has mixed, perform Nozzle Cleaning: High. Nozzle Cleaning:
High cleans the print heads more powerfully than Nozzle Cleaning: Low. Perform [Nozzle
Cleaning: High] also in the case of a media jam (scratches on the media) and extended decap.
The ink consumption for Nozzle Cleaning: High is greater than that of Nozzle Cleaning: Low.
If the printing problem is still not resolved even after performing Nozzle Cleaning: Low three
times, perform Nozzle Cleaning: High and clean the cap. See "Cleaning the Caps", Requests for
Daily Care and Maintenance. If the problem is still not resolved, see "When You Want to Clear
Nozzle Clogging".
