Roland TrueVIS VG2-540 - Powerful Cleaning Method

Powerful Cleaning Method
The print heads are important components that discharge ink. They require periodic and appropriate mainte-
nance. When problems such as dot drop-out are not resolved by medium cleaning (Medium Cleaning Method(P. 231)),
perform the more forceful "powerful cleaning" to remove clogging from the print heads.
IMPORTANT
Powerful cleaning consumes more ink than medium cleaning, and overly frequent use may damage the print heads themselves. Avoid
performing this operaon more than necessary.
