Sleep Mode

When you are not using the printer, always leave the power on and put the printer into the sleep mode. If you do not put the
printer into the sleep mode, the ink in its interior could settle out and/or coagulate, causing poor image quality or printer failure.
During sleep mode, the printer circulates white ink inside the printer (every 24 hours).
Before putting into sleep mode, make sure to perform daily maintenance.
Leaving the printer in sleep mode without performing daily maintenance may cause damage to the print head.
