Change: Manual Cleaning Required after Daily Operations Finish

When using MAX 3 ink, you have to perform manual cleaning after daily operations. Also, the locations to clean during this
manual cleaning differ from those prior to switching to MAX 3 ink.
* This manual cleaning is explained in "Manual Cleaning of Print Head" in the user's manual of the printer that you are
using.
Cleaning timing
Before the start of daily
operations
When dot drop-outs are
not fixed by performing
normal cleaning multiple
times
• Once per month

um or powerful cleaning

Remarks
Carry out a printing test. If dot drop-out
occurs, perform cleaning.
• If dot drop-outs are not fixed by perform-
ing medium cleaning, perform powerful
cleaning.
• This consumes more ink than normal
cleaning, and too-frequent use may dam-
age the print heads themselves. Avoid
using it more than necessary.
• We recommend that you perform this
cleaning periodically.
• Replacing the wiper and felt wiper is
also an effective means of improving the
symptoms.
