Corrective Action
In print jobs such as photos, images
are filled with color. This consumes
a lot of ink. This does not indicate a
problem with the printer.
Head Cleaning B consumes a lot of
ink. This does not indicate a problem
with the printer. Unless the printer
has been moved or stored for a long
period or you are troubleshooting
Printhead problems, we recommend
not performing Head Cleaning B, to
the extent possible.
After initial installation or at the first-
time use after transfer, ink flows into
the system between the Ink Tank and
Printhead, which may cause the ink
level indicators to drop to 80%. This
does not indicate a problem with the
printer.
Remove the new Maintenance
Cartridge you have just installed and
insert it again firmly.
Restart the printer.
Straighten out any curling by the edges
of the paper.
Reload the paper correctly.
Install the Cutter Unit correctly.
