Auto Cleaning
Execute Print Head Cleaning. Perform Auto Cleaning first. If the clogs are
not cleared by doing it, then do in the order of Cleaning(Light),
Cleaning(Light)
Cleaning(Medium), and Cleaning(Heavy) until the clogs are cleared.
Execute Print Head Refresh if there are multiple large clogs, even though
Cleaning(Medium)
you executed Cleaning(Heavy). When you execute Print Head Refresh, the
suction caps need to be cleaned, because of this, the cleaning operation
Cleaning(Heavy)
takes a long time, so execute it if you have the problem described above.

using the unclogged print head. Use this when you want to solve the
problem without interrupting the printing work.

Confirm the check pattern printed by Print Head Nozzle Check, and then
select the print head that is not clogged.
Using the Print Head Nozzle Limitation function increases the print time.
This could also reduce print quality. We recommend using it only during
the time until the clogged nozzles can be cleared.
If you are replacing the waste ink bottle before the message indicating
that it is time to replace the waste ink bottle appears on the control panel's
screen, do so from this menu.

When the print head needs to be replaced, continue work until it is
