Aligning the ink cartridges
There are two instances when you will align your ink cartridges: after installing cartridges
and to improve print quality.
To align the ink cartridges:
1 Load plain paper in the printer. For help, see page 12.
2 Open the Dell Printer Solution Center. For help, see page 8.
3 From the Maintenance tab, click Align to fix blurry edges.
4 Click Print.
An alignment page prints.
5 To manually align your cartridges, select the best alignment values from the alignment
page.
a Find the number under the darkest arrow for each alignment group.
b Use the arrows in the Align Cartridges dialog box to select the number that
matches the arrow you chose from the printed page.
c Once you have selected a number for each of the alignment groups, click OK.
NOTE: If the alignment page does not print, make sure you have completely removed the
stickers and transparent tape from both ink cartridges, and then try to align the cartridges
again.
