Follow the procedure below to perform a thorough print head cleaning. Because head flushing consumes more ink than head cleaning, do it only if the print head cannot be cleaned properly by head cleaning.
When the print cartridge is empty, replace it instead of performing a print head cleaning. After a print cartridge is replaced, a print head cleaning will be automatically performed.
Do not turn the machine off during print head cleaning. If the machine is turned off during print head cleaning, start again from the beginning.
