Print head maintenance ensures the best print quality.
Perform the following maintenance functions as necessary:
- Auto Cleaning: Set the printer
to automatically check for clogged nozzles and perform cleaning if
clogged nozzles are detected. You can change the timing for the
nozzle check or set to Off if you do
not want to perform auto cleaning.
- Print Head Nozzle Check: Check for clogged
nozzles before each print job or if you have not used the printer
for an extended period of time. Inspect the printed check pattern
and clean the print head if you notice faint or missing areas.
- Print Head Cleaning: Clean the print head if you
notice faint areas or gaps in your printouts.
- Ruled Line Alignment: Adjust the
position of the print head if your printouts are grainy or out of
focus.
- Paper Feed Adjust: Adjust the
paper feed if you are unable to resolve banding issues even after
cleaning and aligning the print head.
