CAUTION

If the WASH liquid has been already filtered following the process previously instructed, you can directly dip applicators into the liquid as needed. However, in this case smaller individual containers should be used.

(5) Apply WASH liquid to the head

  • Work on the clogged nozzles

Effective for the inconsistent missing nozzle problem

* Same time you need to check the wiper blade and the wiper cleaner conditions.

  • Nozzle clogging problem found on the heads being removed from the printer for a while

Follow the photo below on how to apply WASH liquid to the head.

Take 1.5cc of WASH liquid out of the container.

  • If the liquid does not go through the head at all, all of the nozzles are likely being clogged and probably less chance to recover.
