Notes when not using the printer
If you are not using it, note the following points when storing the printer. If it is not stored
correctly, you may not be able to print properly the next time it is used.
Additional precautions are required for white and metallic silver inks. See “Specialty Inks”
on page 35.
❏
The pressure rollers may crease media left in the printer. The media may also become
wavy or curled, causing jams or resulting in the media coming into contact with the print
head. Remove the media before putting the printer in storage.
❏
Store the printer after confirming that the print head has been capped (the print head is
positioned at the far right). If the print head is left uncapped for a long time, the print
quality may decline.
❏
Close all covers before placing the printer in storage. If you are not using the printer for
a long time, put an anti-static cloth or cover on the printer to prevent dust build-up. The
print head nozzles are very small, and they can become clogged easily if fine dust gets
on the print head, and you may not be able to print properly.
❏
If you have not used the printer for a long time, check the print head for clogging before
you start printing. Perform head cleaning if the print head is clogged.
See “Checking for clogged nozzles” on page 114.
❏
When storing the printer, be sure that it is level: do not store it on an angle, on end, or
upside down.
