7.3.1 Try This First

Most often, these errors (and weak parts) are caused by accumulation of powder, binder, and debris on the
print head. A dirty print head, in turn, is very often caused by a service station that is dirty and not cleaning
the head properly.
The first solution to try is to clean the service station thoroughly. See Section 3.4, 'Clean The Service Sta-
tion'.
If this fails to solve the problem, use the troubleshooting flowchart below.
