How to improve print quality

Cleaning the print head

To ensure good print quality, the machine will regularly clean the 
print head. You can start the cleaning process when needed.

Clean the print head and ink cartridges if you get a horizontal line in 
the text or graphics on your printed pages. You can clean two colors 
at a time (Black/Cyan, Yellow/Magenta), or all four colors at once.

Cleaning the print head consumes ink. Cleaning too often uses ink 
unnecessarily.

WARNING

Do NOT clean the print head by touching it with your hand or a 
cloth.
