Deep Cleaning - Canon S200 Simplified Service Manual

3. Deep cleaning

This printer has a deep cleaning function.
Deep cleaning: This is a deep cleaning function in order to resolve print failure due to ink clogging the print head
(The black ink is pigment-based, and clogs easier than the current dye-based ink.)
*Perform from the printer driver utility. The amount of purged ink is approx. three times that of normal cleaning.
<Expected trouble with this function>
1) Excessive ink consumption when comductiong deep cleaning repeatedly.
4. Elimination of recovery function at paper pick-up
(All types of pro-photo paper: PR-101/PC-101/PH-101)
The recovery function at paper pick-up is eliminated when the pro-photo paper print mode is selected.
Recovery function at paper pick-up:
The function to correct print position when paper is fed to far at paper pick-up
*As Pro-photo paper is slippery and the print position misaligns easily, the recovery function was eliminated.
If the paper is fed to far, the paper will be ejected without being printed.
5. Bidirectional registration adjustment function
This printer has a bidirectional registration adjustment function (print head alignment).
Bidirectional registration adjustment function:
The function to correct horizontal misalignment in bidirectional printing
Print head alignment pattern: Patterns "A" to "D" for bidirectional correction
(A: HS mode Bk, B: HS mode Cl, C: HQ mode Bk, D: HQ mode Cl)
See "4. Service mode" for adjustment procedures/horizontal misalignment confirmation method.
<Expected trouble with this function>
1) Horizontal misalignment may be significant if setting prior to print head alignment remain
after print head replacement without re-adjustment.
