9.5. Nozzle Strong Maintenance
Perform this maintenance when the ejection failure is not improved even after performing
"STRONG" head cleaning multiple times (3 to 5 times).
Attach the head protection cover filled with cleaning solution to the print head and perform this
maintenance to improve nozzle clogging.
Clean white or color heads in a single operation.
When 30 minutes or more have passed after the carriage moves, the machine will cancel this
maintenance. As nozzle dryness may cause a nozzle defect, perform this maintenance
promptly.
If your firmware version is older than the following, please update it.
The firmware version of printer that supports this maintenance is as follows.
・Panel (GIB) :1.47
・Sub Control (SCB) :1.13.231110
