It is strongly recommended to regularly clean print heads, or at

mode). In addition, if the printer is operated under critical
applications or environments, or if print quality is found to have
degraded, please clean print heads more frequently.

cotton buds with "Ethanol" or "industrial alcohol" to clean print
