Inkjet Printer Tip

    Inkjet printers should always be turned on and off using the printer's own power switch. If you have the inkjet printer plugged into a power strip or surge protector, do not use the external power switch to control the printer.

   
    Turning power off with an external switch will result in the inkjet printhead not parking correctly, resulting in clogged ink nozzles. In addition, any manual settings made to the inkjet printer will only be saved when the printer is turned off using the printer's own power switch.
