Description
Ink tends to collect on the surface of the heads when you use media prone to build up a static charge, or when the
ambient temperature is low. Under some conditions, this ink may be transferred to the media. Use this feature at such
times. The ink buildup is removed as printing is performed.
When this is set to "PAGE," automatic cleaning is performed every time before printing starts.
When this is set to a value from "10 min" to "990 min," automatic cleaning is performed when the cumulative printing
time reaches the value you set here.
When this is set to "NONE," no automatic cleaning is performed.
Using "PAGE" or a value from "10 min" to "990 min," results in longer printing times. Also, when this is set to a value
from "10 min" to "990 min," printing pauses and so colors may be uneven.

Description
Some types of media may tend to stick to the platen. Starting printing with the media sticking to the platen may make
normal media feed impossible and cause the media to jam. When you're using such media, set the [MEDIA RELEASE]
menu item to "ENABLE." This peels off the media if sticking before starting printing. Note, however, that media feed
may be unstable when printing is performed after executing this operation. Leave this menu item set to "DISABLE"
unless you specifically need to change it.
