
Do not activate the printer with the ink tube not connected to the print head. Otherwise, the printer may be damaged.

Make sure that no flushing foam extends off the outboard end portions of the flushing receiver. If it sticks out of the end
portions, it may interfere with any nozzles and may result in non-ejection of ink-jet droplets.

performed.
<TIPS>

If the printer is activated after having been off for a long time, the maintenance operation including white ink circulation will
be performed for up to 40 minutes.

How to turn off the power
(1) Press the power button for a short time (Release your finger when a beep sounds).
If the printer is operating, wait for it to finish.
(2) Cleaning will start at the end of the print job.
Then the power will be turned off.
<IMPORTANT>

No cleaning will be performed at the end of the print job to keep the print heads in good condition, if you open the front
cover before turning the power off or disconnect the AC power cable. In these cases, the print heads may fail to eject ink-jet
droplets. For this reason, be sure to activate the printer once again and perform the head cleaning after activation.
