Operation
Set a sheet of plain paper (A4 or Letter) in the cassette.
Set a sheet of plain paper (A4 or Letter) in
the cassette, or the rear tray if selected.
Unclogging of the print head nozzles, and
maintenance to keep the print head
conditions good.
If there is a missing portion or white streaks
in the nozzle check pattern printout,
perform this cleaning.
If print head cleaning is not effective,
perform this cleaning. Since the deep
cleaning consumes more ink than regular
cleaning, it is recommended to perform
deep cleaning only when necessary.
Set 1 sheet of A4 Matte Photo Paper
(MP-101) in the rear tray.
If automatic alignment is not effective,
perform manual print head alignment.
Set 3 sheets of plain paper (A4 or Letter) in
the cassette, or the rear tray if selected.
Confirmation of the current print head
alignment values.
The paper feed rollers of the selected
paper source (the rear tray or the cassette)
rotate while being pushed to the paper
lifting plate. Since the rollers will wear out in
this cleaning, it is recommended that you
perform this only when necessary.
Cleaning of the platen ribs when the back
side of paper gets smeared.
Fold a sheet of plain paper (A4 or Letter) in
half crosswise, then unfold and set it in the
rear tray with the folded ridge facing down.
(No paper feeding from the cassette)
