Oce Arizona LED UV and White

We installed a new Arizona about 5 months ago. White has been quite the pain. We were warned, but man if you don't print with it every day it clogs up! We are new to the wide format world and this is our first flatbed. We wipe the heads every night before we leave but should we be doing something different? What are you all doing to prevent head dry-up??
 
There isn't much you can do to prevent dry up over night or even during the day while you are not running white. All you can really do is keep it clean and always do the maintenance at least once a day on the white. Don't be too worried if you are missing a few white nozzles in your nozzle checks and just be prepared to put some elbow grease into cleaning it when you are ready to run white. As you get to know your machine you will find out what kind of routine is required to get the white into running shape.

Thanks. Was hoping I was missing something. Sounds like I'm not. Just takes a lot of maintenance.
