Cleaning the Print Head Deeply

Do not perform any other operations until the machine completes the deep cleaning of the Print Head. This
takes about 2 minutes.

When the deep cleaning is completed, the LED returns to the standby mode.
To check the print head condition, print the nozzle check pattern. See

If the problem is not resolved, clean the Print Head deeply again.
If the problem is still not resolved, ink may have run out. Replace the FINE Cartridge with a new one. See
