How to Perform Cleaning
Important Notes on This Procedure
 Cleaning requires the included cleaning liquid and commercially available glass cleaner. Have these on hand before you start.
 Before attempting this operation, remove any media. 
 To prevent the print heads from drying out, finish this procedure in 30 minutes or less.
 A  warning  beep  sounds  after  30  minutes. At  this  time,  stop  work,  attach  the  front  cover,  and  press 
. When the head-protection operation finishes, restart the procedure from the beginning.
 Never use any implement other than the included cleaning stick. Cotton swabs or other lint-producing  items may damage the heads.
 Use one cleaning stick per cleaning session, then discard the stick after use. Reusing cleaning sticks  may reduce printing quality. 
 Never immerse a cleaning stick that has already been used to perform cleaning in the cleaning liquid.  Doing so may degrade the cleaning liquid. 
 Never touch the nozzle surface of the heads.
 Stroke the sponges very gently, applying as little pressure as possible. Never rub, scrape, or crush  them.
 CAUTION  Be sure to perform operations as specified by these instructions, and never touch 
any area not specified in the instructions.
