MultiPASS C530/C560 Chapter 1: General Description
c) Preventing ink clogging
Do not touch the ink cartridge's ink outlets. Doing so may introduce foreign matter into the printing
head's joint pipes, causing poor ink suction. After removing the cap from the ink cartridge,
immediately install the ink cartridge in the printing head to prevent the ink at the nozzles from drying
out and clogging. Do not remove the ink cartridge except when it is to be replaced.

If the ink nozzles are clogged or if the ink suction is poor, the printout may have
horizontal white stripes. If the cleaning operation does not restore it to normal, replace
the BJ cartridge.
