cleaning if needed (short clean) and repeat the process until the nozzle pattern is drop-
out free.

ll capping station with nozzle buster solution and turn the printer o with the head sitting in locked
position for 6+ hours (When wet capping printer must to be o).
Note: The next day shake the white cartridges as usual, then perform a nozzle check the following day.
