IMPORTANT
- System Cleaning consumes an extremely large amount of ink. Executing system cleaning frequently will rapidly deplete your printer's ink supply. Therefore execute system cleaning only when necessary.
REFERENCE
- If there is no sign of improvement after System Cleaning, switch off the printer, wait 24 hours, and then perform Deep Cleaning again. If there is still no sign of improvement, the ink may have run out or the print head may be worn.
