    Solution

      If print quality does not improve by the standard cleaning of the Print Head, deep cleaning of the Print Head will be necessary. Cleaning the Print Head deeply consumes more ink than the standard cleaning of the Print Head, so clean the Print Head deeply only when necessary.

      You need to prepare: a sheet of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper

      1.Make sure that the power is turned on.

      2.Make sure that one or more sheets of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper are loaded in the Rear Tray.
