Normal Failure Rate:
Keep the nozzle failure rate at ≤1%. This means that in each of the four print‑head channels, no more than 4 nozzles should be clogged (up to 12 missing strip lines total).
Good Vs Clogged Head
- Good / Accepted: ≤1% failure rate indicates the print head is nearly free of clogs, and print results should be satisfactory.
- Clogged Printhead: >1% failure rate requires maintenance. Start with a standard auto‑cleaning. If quality does not improve, perform a deep auto‑cleaning or soak the print head in cleaning solution.
