Key Points to Successful Printing
Check the machine status before printing!
Is the print head OK?
If a print head nozzle is clogged, print will be faint and papers will be wasted. Print the
nozzle check pattern to check the print head.
Is the inside of the machine smeared with ink?
After printing large quantities of paper or performing borderless printing, the area where
papers go through may get smeared with ink. Clean the inside of your machine with
Bottom Plate Cleaning.
