24 Routine Maintenance

If you click Cleaning on the Pattern Check dialog box that is displayed after printing the nozzle

check pattern, go to step 4-(3).

1 Make sure that the printer is on.

2 Open the Paper Output Tray and extend the Output Tray Extension.

Set the Paper Thickness Lever to the left. For details on the Paper Thickness Lever, refer to

“Inside” in “Main Components” of the User’s Guide on-screen manual.

3 Open the Canon IJ Printer Utility dialog box.

4 Start Print Head Cleaning.

(1) Make sure that Cleaning is selected in the pop-up menu.

(2) Click Cleaning.

(3) Confirm the displayed message and click OK.

Print Head Cleaning starts when the Power lamp starts flashing green.

Do not perform any other operations until Print Head Cleaning finishes. This takes about

60 seconds.

(4) Load a sheet of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper in the Rear Tray.

(5) Confirm the displayed message and click Print Check Pattern.

The nozzle check pattern is printed.

Do not perform any other operations until the nozzle check pattern finishes printing.

5 Check the print head condition with the printed nozzle check pattern, and take

appropriate action.

See “Examining the Nozzle Check Pattern” on page 21.

Note

Clicking Initial Check Items displays the items to be checked before cleaning.

Note

The nozzle check pattern will not be printed correctly if there is not enough ink. Replace the FINE

Cartridge if the remaining amount of ink is insufficient. See “Replacing a FINE Cartridge” on

page 31.

Note

If the problem is not resolved after performing steps 4 and 5 twice, try Print Head Deep Cleaning.

See “Print Head Deep Cleaning” on page 25.
