Cautions about Turning the Power OFF
● Do not turn the main power switch OFF.
When the main power switch is ON, the power

When the main power switch has been turned OFF,
the auto maintenance functions, such as flushing, do
not operate, and this may cause nozzle clogging.
● Keep the front cover and the
maintenance cover closed.
If the cover is opened, the auto maintenance function
such as the flushing function does not work.
● Turn the power OFF after having checked
the position of the head.
If the power is turned OFF in a state where the head
has not returned to the capping station, the ink head
dries, which may cause nozzle clogging.
In this case, turn the power ON again and check that
the head has returned to the capping station, and then
turn the power OFF.
