Other Problems

Ink consumption is exceedingly high

Cause 1:

Printing many color images over an entire
printing area.

Solution 1: Printing photographs or other images that

require a lot of color fill consumes large
amounts of ink. This is not unusual.

Cause 2:

Executing Head Cleaning B very often.

Solution 1: Head Cleaning B consumes a large amount of

ink (this is not unusual). After the printer has
been moved, or after the printer has been
stored and not used for a long period (excluding
other problems with the printhead), you should
execute Head Cleaning B.

Cause 3:

The printer consumes ink for the initial ink tank
filling.

Solution 1: The first time the printer used after it is set up or

moved to a new location, the ink level display
may drop to as low as 80% as a result of filling
the printhead and ink tanks with ink (this is not
abnormal).

The message MTCart Full Soon does not
disappear after you replace the maintenance
cartridge with a new one

Cause 1:

The printer has not yet recognized the new
maintenance cartridge.

Solution 1: Replace the maintenance cartridge and press

the Information button.

Solution 2: After replacing a new maintenance cartridge

the message disappears upon executing a print
or cleaning operation.

Media is not cutting straight

Cause 1:

The media is wrinkled at the cutting position.

Solution 1: Flatten the media at the cutting position.

The printer does not turn on

Cause 1:

The power cord was unplugged with the printer
power on.

Solution 1: Wait three minutes with the power cord

unplugged, then plug in the power cord again
and switch the printer on.

The roll media will not feed into the paper feed slot

Cause 1:

The roll media is curled.

Solution 1: Insert the paper into the paper feed slot at an

angle starting with the left corner or right corner,
then feed the paper through and straighten it out.
