Note • If the Alarm lamp lights or flashes after the paper output cover is closed, take appropriate action. An Error Occurs • When you start printing after replacing the FINE cartridge, the machine starts cleaning the print head automatically. Do not perform any other operations until the machine completes the cleaning of the print head.
Page 168
Note • If a FINE cartridge runs out of ink, you can print with either color or black FINE cartridge, in whichever ink remains, only for a while. However the print quality may be reduced compared to when printing with both cartridges. We recommend to use a new FINE cartridge in order to obtain optimum qualities.
Checking Ink Status Checking the Ink Status with the Ink Lamps on the Operation Panel You can also check the ink status on the computer screen. Checking the Ink Status from Your Computer (Windows) Checking the Ink Status from Your Computer (Mac OS)
Checking the Ink Status with the Ink Lamps on the Operation Panel Note • The ink level detector is mounted on the machine to detect the remaining ink level. The machine considers as ink is full when a new FINE cartridge is installed, and then starts to detect a remaining ink level.

From the computer Cleaning the Print Heads (Windows) Cleaning the Print Heads (Mac OS) After cleaning the print head, print and examine the nozzle check pattern: Step1 If the problem is not resolved after performing from step 1 to step 3 twice: Clean the print head deeply.
Printing the Nozzle Check Pattern Print the nozzle check pattern to determine whether the ink ejects properly from the print head nozzle. Note • If the remaining ink level is low, the nozzle check pattern will not be printed correctly. Replace the FINE cartridge whose ink is low.
Examining the Nozzle Check Pattern Examine the nozzle check pattern, and clean the print head if necessary. 1. Check if there are missing lines in the pattern A or horizontal white streaks in the pattern B. C: Number of sheets printed so far If there are missing lines in the pattern A: Cleaning the print head is required.
Cleaning the Print Head Clean the print head if lines are missing or if horizontal white streaks are present in the printed nozzle check pattern. Cleaning unclogs the nozzles and restores the print head condition. Cleaning the print head consumes ink, so clean the print head only when necessary. 1.
Cleaning the Print Head Deeply If print quality does not improve by the standard cleaning of the print head, clean the print head deeply. Cleaning the print head deeply consumes more ink than the standard cleaning of the print head, so clean the print head deeply only when necessary.
Aligning the Print Head If printed ruled lines are misaligned or print results are otherwise unsatisfactory, adjust the print head position. Note • If the remaining ink level is low, the print head alignment sheet will not be printed correctly. Replace the FINE cartridge whose ink is low.
