4.2 ניקוי ראש ההדפסה

If print quality declines (e.g., missing lines, streaking), perform a print head cleaning. This can be initiated from the printer's control panel or through the printer software on your computer. Follow the prompts to complete the cleaning cycle.

4.3 Waste Ink Pad

The printer contains a waste ink absorption pad that collects excess ink during operations like print head cleaning and borderless printing. When the waste ink pad approaches its capacity limit, a warning message will appear. If this occurs during borderless printing, an error may be displayed. For borderless printing, the printer absorbs discarded ink. If you are printing with borders, you may be able to continue using the printer. However, it is recommended to contact Epson support for service when this warning appears to prevent potential ink overflow.
