2-1 Before Starting Operations
Before Starting the Day's Work
The ingredients in white ink tend to settle. Each day, before starting the day's operations, be sure to
carry out the following steps. Allowing the ink to stand without carrying out these steps can cause the
settled material to harden, resulting in malfunction or other problems.
Remove just the white ink cartridges, shake them gently, then reinsert them.
The cyan, magenta, yellow, black, and gloss ink cartridges do not need to be shaken every day, but
new cartridges for these colors should be shaken when you install them.
Automatic Maintenance Feature

to observe the following matters.
Leave the main power on at all times.
Never leave the front cover open for long periods.
After nishing making the settings for the various menu items, go back to the top
screen.
