Cleaning Printheads
If you suspect print quality issues related to banding, clogged nozzles, or printing defects, you
might want to initiate a cleaning.
Printhead cleaning cannot be done during a print job or if an error is occurring. When cleaning
is in progress, do not perform any other operation.
Note: Cleaning the printhead consumes ink. Clean the printhead only when necessary.
The cleaning options discussed in this procedure are also available in the
the QL-800 Status Monitor.
