How do I perform a power cleaning cycle from the printer's control panel?

  • Do the following:

    1. Print a nozzle check pattern to make sure the print head needs cleaning.
    2. Make sure the printer is ready and the red  ink light is not on or flashing.
    3. Press Menu.
    4. Press  until MAINTENANCE is selected, then press Menu.
    5. Press  until POWER CLEANING is selected, then press Menu. Press Menu again, then press  to start the power cleaning.
    6. Follow the instructions on the LCD display to raise or lower the ink levers.
    7. When cleaning is finished and the  Pause light stops flashing, print a nozzle check pattern again to confirm that the head is clean.

    For effective cleaning, always run a nozzle check between cycles.
