Rotate the swab by 180 degrees to its clean side and repeat step 3 for the next printhead.

the swap around the perimeter of the opening. See path indicated in red in figure below. Take
special care to remove ink from the gap between the metal plates of the printhead and carriage
base plate. See area indicated in yellow in figure below.

Discard the swab. A new swab must now be used to clean the next two printheads.
