Use an individual, small container of cleaning solution/fluid and a new swab for each color.
Only use this cleaning solution/fluid for several cleanings until it becomes slightly
discolored.
Warning:
Never use Isopropyl alcohol on the print head nozzle plates.
1.
Access the carriage assembly via the control panel using the Operator/Maintenance/
Access Carriage menu.
2.
Lower the maintenance station to access the carriage faceplate.
3.
Dip the clean swab into the small container of cleaning solution/fluid.
Warning:
Each swab has a seam that may scratch the print head nozzle
plate. Use the long semi-curved smooth side of the swab.
4.
Starting with the yellow print heads, use a saturated swab to gently apply the cleaning
solution/fluid onto the nozzle plates. Gently move the swab across each head nozzle
plate one time to moisten the ink on each head surface, as shown in Photo 4.
Important: Applying too much force with the swab against the nozzle plate may
scratch the surface.
5.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 for each color beginning next with light magenta, working your
way to black.
Important: Use one clean swab and container of cleaning solution/fluid per color.
Never mix an ink stained swab outside the color you are working with.
6.
Allow the heads to soak a couple of minutes.
