Power Cleaning
If you still see white or dark lines or missing nozzles in your printouts, even after cleaning the print head
several times, you can run a Power Cleaning.
If you do not see improvement after running a Power Cleaning, you must turn off the product and wait at
least 6 hours before printing a nozzle check pattern and running another Power Cleaning or Print Head
Cleaning.
Caution: Power Cleaning may cause the maintenance box to reach its capacity sooner. When the
maintenance box is full, you need to replace it to continue printing.
Note: Power Cleaning consumes more ink than Print Head Cleaning.
