After the head wash, perform CHAGE (INKPACK) to prime the ink system.
Note
To keep the print head in good condition, the printer performs the fillcap
operation automatically 72 hours after the printer enters the standby state, and
then every 3 days. The printer power should be kept on for the fillcap operation
except when the printer is not used for a long time period. To protect the print
head, do not leave the printer for more than one month with no ink charged.
Do not open or close the rear cover or lever during the service clean and head
wash. Otherwise, the operation may have to be restarted from the beginning
while wasting the ink and the cleaning liquid.
