To maintain good print quality, the machine will automatically clean the print head when needed. You can start the cleaning process manually if there is a print quality problem.
Clean the print head and ink cartridges if you get a horizontal line in the text or graphics, or blank text on your printed pages. You can clean Black only, three colours at a time (Cyan/Yellow/Magenta), or all four colours at once.
Cleaning the print head consumes ink. Cleaning too often uses ink unnecessarily.
IMPORTANT
| DO NOT touch the print head. Touching the print head may cause permanent damage and may void the print head's warranty. |

Note
