3-3 Cleaning the Heads Using the Cleaning Kit
When the Cleaning Kit Becomes Necessary
If problems such as dot drop-out occur frequently and are not corrected by the machine's head-cleaning feature,
clean the heads using the cleaning kit. Such cleaning can be effective when carried out periodically, according
to the frequency of use.
➢If you use up the cleaning kit, purchase a new one from your authorized Roland DG Corp. dealer or Roland DG
Corp. service center.
➢The print heads are components that wear out. Periodic replacement is required, with the frequency of replacement
depending on use. Purchase them from your authorized Roland DG Corp. dealer or Roland DG Corp. service
center.
How to Perform Cleaning
Important Notes on This Procedure
➢To prevent the heads from drying out, finish this procedure in 30 minutes or less.
➢A warning beep sounds after 30 minutes. At this time, stop work, attach the side covers, and press
. When
the head-protection operation finishes, switch off the power and restart the procedure from the beginning.
➢Never use any implement other than the included cleaning stick. Cotton swabs or other lint-producing items may
damage the heads.
➢Never touch the nozzle surface of the heads.
➢Stroke the sponges very gently, applying as little pressure as possible. Never rub, scrape, or crush them.
CAUTION
Be sure to perform operations as specified by these instructions, and never touch
any area not specified in the instructions.
Sudden movement of the machine may cause injury.
