When Normal Cleaning Is Not Effective

Medium Cleaning Method

The print heads are important components that discharge ink. They require periodic and appropriate
maintenance. When problems such as dot drop-out are not resolved by normal cleaning, perform
the more forceful "medium cleaning" to remove clogging from the print heads.
I MP O RTANT
Medium cleaning consumes more ink than normal cleaning, and overly frequent use may
damage the print heads themselves. Avoid performing this operation more than necessary.
