within the Print Head, causing a clog.
We have found the best solution to this issue is to turn your printer ON everyday,
even if you don't intend to print anything. When the printer is turned ON, it
primes the Print Head during startup. This process is
suffi cient to prevent head clogs if done regularly. You DO NOT have to do a
Head Cleaning unless you want to.
After your printer has gone through its startup procedures, turn it OFF to ensure
the Print Head seats within the Capping Station.
NOTE: Always make sure you observe the proper procedures for powering ON
and OFF your printer to avoid damaging the Print Head.

send this image to the RIP for printing.

You can turn the printer off for 30 seconds and then back on, BUT if you are in
the middle of a job, you will lose a shirt.
You can also press the Ink button once (wait until printer moves the Print
Carriage off of the Capping Station and parks), press the Ink button again and
the carriage will return to home position. The lights should go out and the printer
