Cleaning of the print heads surface as an emergency measure
When problems such as dot drop-out are not improved even if cleaning is performed several times, you can
clean the print heads surface as an emergency measure. Since the print heads surface (nozzle surface) is an
extremely delicate mechanism, make sure to perform the operations carefully and deliberately.
Note that this operation is an emergency measure. Depending on how operations are performed, normal
areas may be damaged and symptoms may be worsened. If you have any questions, contact your authorized
Roland DG Corp. dealer.
