How to clean printheads of an Epson SX435W printer?
If you find that the printout is faded or the dots are missing, you may be able to solve these problems by either replacing the Epson SX435W ink cartridges or by cleaning the print head, which ensures that the nozzles are delivering ink properly.
You can clean the printhead from your computer using the Head Cleaning utility in the printer driver or from the printer by using the buttons.
Note:- As the print head cleaning uses some ink from all Epson SX435W ink cartridges, clean the printhead only when the quality declines. For example, if the printout is blurry or the color is incorrect or missing.
Use the Nozzle Check utility first to confirm that the print head needs to be cleaned. This saves ink - When ink is low you may not be able to clean the printhead. When ink is expended you cannot clean the printhead. Replace the appropriate Epson SX435W ink cartridge first.
- Make sure that no warnings or errors are displayed on the LCD screen, while you are running the cleaning process
Follow the steps below to clean the printhead using the Head Cleaning utility
Right-click the printer icon on the taskbar, then select Head Cleaning. If the printer icon does not appear, refer to the following section to add the icon.
From the shortcut icon on the taskbar- Follow the on-screen instructions
- The On light flashes while the printer performs the cleaning cycle.
Caution:
Never turn off the printer while the On light is flashing. Doing so may damage the printer.
If print quality has not improved after repeating this procedure about four times, turn the printer off and wait for at least six hours. Then run the nozzle check again and repeat the head cleaning if necessary. If print quality has still not improved, contact Epson support.
To maintain print quality, we recommend printing a few pages on a regular basis.
