Procedure
Put on the pair of gloves (included).

the area around the print heads.
Thoroughly read the explanation on the screen, and
then perform the cleaning carefully. When you have

Important notes on this procedure
Before attempting this operation, remove any media.
To prevent the print heads from drying out, nish this procedure in 30 minutes or less. A warning beep sounds after
30 minutes.
Never use any implements other than the included cleaning sticks. Cotton swabs or other lint-producing items may dam-
age the print heads. If you use up the cleaning sticks, purchase new ones from your authorized Roland DG Corp. dealer.
Use one cleaning stick per cleaning session, and then discard the stick after use. Reusing cleaning sticks may reduce
the printing quality.
Do not put a cleaning stick that has been used for cleaning into the cleaning liquid. Doing so will deteriorate the
cleaning liquid.
Never rub the nozzle surface of the print heads.
Stroke the sponges very gently, applying as little pressure as possible. Never rub, scrape, or crush them.
During cleaning, use the cleaning liquid that you have
been using since before switching the ink. Use the
cleaning liquid included with the switching kit only
after you have switched the ink.
