Print head care and precautions
If you have problems inserting the print head:
•Make sure the print head carriage is in the print head loading position.
•Check that the print head/chamber is clean and free of foreign bodies.
•NEVER force the print head into the chamber; always remove it completely and repeat the entire
insertion operation.
If the quality of printing is not optimum, do the “Clean” operation.
•Always keep the print heads sealed in their containers until they are to be used.
•Remember to remove the protective tape before inserting the print head in the printer.
•Take care not to get ink on your clothes; the ink in the print head stains.
•Do NOT attempt to refill the print head with ink, as this damages the print head and the printer.
•DO NOT shake the print head; it is not a fountain pen. If it does not print, do the cleaning operations
described in “Cleaning the print head ”.
Switching off your printer before your computer will guarantee that the print head carriage is in
its rest position. When the printer is powered, the print head carriage will automatically return
to its rest position and go into standby mode after approximately two minutes of inactivity.
User guide 9
Cleaning the print heads
The print heads are cleaned automatically at regular intervals while the printer is powered. This
operation clears the print head nozzles, guaranteeing the ink flow. If you have a problem with the
printing quality that is not solved by this automatic nozzle clearing operation, you can do the same
operation, using the “CLEAN” function in the Printer Care tab in Printer Monitor.
If you have a problem with the printing quality that is not solved by the “CLEAN” feature, run a Print Test
and then proceed as follows:
1. Clean the electrical contacts
(a) Press the “Change” button in the Printer Care tab in the Printer Monitor.
(b) Open the printer cover; release and remove the print head that is causing the problem.
(c) Clean the electrical contacts (gold part) on the print head and in the housing on the print head carriage
with a slightly damp lint-free cloth, taking care not to touch the print head nozzles.
(d) Re-insert the print head in the printer and close the printer cover.
(e) Repeat the print test.
