How to maintain for long term storage (more than one week) and what are precautions?

  • Clean the area around the head, perform [CUSTODY WASH] prior to turning off the machine.

Procedures to clean the area around the head can be found here.
Please see here for the procedure of [CUSTODY WASH].

[Notes]
Please check the following to prevent ink path clogging and to protect the nozzles.

(1) Please keep the main power switch on during long-term storage
   The nozzle clogging prevention function automatically turns on to protect printhead nozzles.
   Leaving the main power turned off for a long period of time may cause the nozzles to be clogged.

(2) Please check the ink remaining level.
    Ink suction works during cleaning operation.
    During ink suction, nozzle wash does not start if "INK END" or "INK NEAR END" is detected.
    We recommend setting an ink bottle with sufficient remaining amount, as ink is consumed
    during regular maintenance while the printer is not in use.

(3) Check the waste ink remaining level in the waste ink tank.
    Waste liquid may overflow during long-term storage if there is not enough remaining capacity.
    Nozzle protection does not function normally when "Check waste ink" is displayed.
    Please visually check the waste ink level and see the waste water level on the Water Ink
    Reset menu and dispose the waste ink accordingly.
