> WEEKLY ADDITIONAL MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE
Visual inspection is important to keep your printer up and running.
Verify all the moving parts of the machine and also check for leakage of ink.
After you have done the WTC, take the opportunity to clean the rubber Wiper Blades
to avoid the white ink to dry and stay on the Wiper. It will prevent dry particules of ink to
block the nozzles during the next cleaning.
Also clean all the caps of the maintenance station (specially the rectangle lip) to remove
again dry ink but also some fluff and lint of the T-shirts. They will allow the air to pass
through the capping station and reduce the good suction of the pump.
> WIPER BLADES CLEANING :
Check the wiper edge for any tear or separation from the metal base. If any exists, the
wiper sub-assembly must be replaced by a new one.

> RUBBER CAPS CLEANING :
Once the wipers are clean, the rubbers caps must be cleaned with the swabs as well.
The rims of the cap rubbers press against the bottom of the print head's CLP, to form a
seal so air cannot dry the heads. If the rims of the caps have debris, dried or excessive
ink, the ink will back away from the membrane and nozzles will misfire.
If this continues over time, the print head will dry and eventually become defective.
Power on the printer. The printer will boot up as normal except it will drain each cap,
one at a time, before it moves the carriage.
The wiper cleans the underside of the print heads to allow the
nozzles to fire properly. The wiper is cleaned by passing across
the wiper cleaner.
Once this cleaner is dirty or over saturated, the wiper edge can
no longer be cleaned and therefore no longer clean the nozzle
plates.
Apply cleaning solution to a swab and wipe across the front
and backside of the 2 wiper rubber blades.
SB3635001
Moisten a swab as done for the wiper blade cleaning, and
swab the edges and the inside of the rubber caps.
Use one side of a swab per cap so you do not contaminate
one color to another, from Y to C to M to K.
Clean White caps also !
Once all of the caps have been cleaned, insert the new wiper
cleaners in place. The wiper blades should be in the center,
between the two sets of 4 rubber caps.
