Cleaning suction cap (Use clean stick T)
(1) Wipe the lip of the suction cap in parallel with the side surface of the tip of clean stick T, and then wipe the outer
frame in the same way.
<IMPORTANT>

Clean the lip of the suction cap with clean stick T. The print head dries and causes an ejection failure if solidified ink
remains.

Do not touch the sponge of the suction cap. The sponge may come off.

Never touch the tip end of clean stick T with your hand. If any sebaceous matter is attached to the wiper, it may result in a
printer malfunction.

If ink clot floats on surface, remove it using the clean stick T. Do not use tweezers or other sharp objects. Using sharp
objects could damage the suction cap and deteriorate its air tightness, possibly resulting in failure to eject ink-jet droplets.

Be sure not to pinch the rubber seal. If it is damaged, its sealing property will be degraded, which in turn may lead to
non-ejection of ink-jet droplets from the print heads.

(2) Replace clean stick T with clean stick R, rinse the cleaning cup, and clean the nozzle guard on the color side head.
<IMPORTANT>

Be sure to use the clean stick T separately for white ink and color ink.

The used clean stick T should be disposed of, and should not be reused.

After cleaning the nozzle guard of the color side head, rinse the cleaning cup with pure water, let it dry sufficiently, and store
it so that dust does not get inside.
