• Turn the printer off at the end of the day after you are finished using it. The printer runs maintenance that may take up to 5 minutes before turning off. Note: To keep the print head in the optimum operating condition, ink and cleaning solution are also used in maintenance operations such as head cleaning in addition to printing. Parent topic: Printer Usage Guidelines Related references Environmental Specifications Related topics Maintenance Storing Your Printer Follow these guidelines if you need to store your printer for a long period: • If the printer is not used for an extended period of time, place the printer into storage mode. If the printer is stored without performing this operation, the print head nozzles may become clogged. • We recommend that you print once a week if the printer is not used for a long time without performing the prolonged storage operation. • If you do not use the printer for a long time, make sure you perform a nozzle check before printing. If clogged nozzles are detected, clean the suction/cleaning cap and then clean the print head. • Even if the printer is not turned on, ink that has accumulated in the waste ink tubes may leak out. Make sure the waste ink bottle is installed even when the printer is not on. • Make sure that the print head has been capped (the print head is positioned on the right side) before storing the printer. If an error occurs and the printer is turned off without first resolving the error, the print head may not be capped on the right side, which causes the print head to dry out. If this occurs, turn on the power until capping is performed automatically. • Close all the covers on the printer to prevent dust and debris from getting in. If the printer will be not be used for an extended period of time, protect it with an anti-static cloth or other cover. The print head nozzles can become clogged if dust gets on the print head, and you may not be able to print properly.
