When Dot Drop-out Cannot be Cleared Up
When Dot Drop-out of White or Gloss Ink Cannot be Cleared Up
In this operation, all white and gloss inks within the printer are discharged, and the interior is cleaned. Ink is
relled after cleaning. This operation requires two SOL INK cleaning cartridges.
White ink tends to settle, and may harden if allowed to stand for a lengthy time. Therefore, abnormal ink
emission including dot drop-out tends to occur more frequently than with other inks, even when using the
cleaning function (Normal, Medium, or Powerful) or manual cleaning.
* If you want to perform maintenance on inks other than white or gloss ink, see
P. 68, "Cleaning All Print Heads".
Important Notes on This Procedure
A large amount of ink will be discharged during this operation. Perform this operation when all
procedures such as "Normal", "Medium", "Powerful", and "Manual" cleaning, and measures
to improve ink emission aws (such as dot drop-out) do not improve the symptoms.
P. 56, "Maintenance that Should Be Performed Daily"
P. 60, "Medium and Powerful Cleaning"
P. 62, "Manual Cleaning"
Be sure to use SOL INK cleaning cartridges. Use of any other type may result in break-
down.
According to the procedure, ll with ink as soon as possible. Allowing the machine to stand
without ink may damage the print heads.
