Notice? If the user does nothing at this point (for example, no long cleaning card inserted), the LCD will change to display CLEAN PRINTER after the timeout. The printer can print, but the LCD will continue to display CLEAN PRINTER. This limited cleaning process does not perform a thorough cleaning, but it can be done without the “Long Cleaning Card”.
