Performing a Print Test
If your printouts become faint or streaked with white lines, print a nozzle
check pattern to determine of the print nozzles on the printhead are clogged.
Before executing the nozzle check pattern, be sure at least one A4 or letter
size sheet of plain paper is loaded for printing.
z Always load A4 or Letter size paper in Cassette 1. If paper is not loaded, the
pattern will print on the platen and will smear ink inside the printer and onto other
paper.
z You do not need to select the media size on the operation panel. The paper is force
fed from Cassette 1 to print the pattern.
