Try to make a print
every day to keep print head and ink tank fresh. Your
printer doesn't like to be left for days at time without
printing. |

|
Never remove a
cartridge from the printer without putting another one in its
place. Exposing the nozzle to air for more than a few
minutes is a great way cause a clog. |
|

 |
|
Keep your printer in
a clean room with appropriate humidity. Don't let dust get
into ink outlet or ink reservoir. Remember to shake ink
reservoir every month. |

Dye ink is formed from water-soluble molecules, while pigment
ink is comprised of insoluble pigment particles. Think of
dye ink as like a sugar or salt solution in water; and think of
pigment ink as little rocks suspended in a carrier solution.
|
 |
Each pigment
particle is encapsulated in a resin. A unique polymer
pulls the particle apart so they are suspended in the
solution.

Don't insert ink
tube to the bottom of the ink reservoir. Have the ink tube
suspended in the ink reservoir at 1/4 height.
That prevents ink
inlet from being blocked up and sucking up precipitation.
Don't let your ink
level get below 1/4 empty. Add additional ink before this
happens. |

Remember to shake
the pigment ink reservoir every month. It helps the CIS
offer the same ink density all along and prevent head clogging. |
