Caution:
Never turn off the printer while the Power light is flashing.
Doing so may damage the printer.
3. When the Power light stops flashing, print a few lines from a
document to confirm that the head is clean and to reset the
cleaning cycle.
If print quality hasn’t improved after repeating this procedure
four or five times, one or both of your ink cartridges may be old
or damaged and may need to be replaced. To replace an ink
cartridge before it is empty, see “Replacing an Old or Damaged
Ink Cartridge” in the online
User’s Guide
.
If the print quality still has not improved after replacing the ink
cartridges, contact your dealer.
Aligning the Print Head
If you notice a misalignment of vertical lines, you may be able to
solve this problem with the printer’s control panel buttons.
Note:
You can also align the print head from your computer using the Print
Head Alignment utility in your printer software.
Follow these steps to align the print head with the buttons:
1. Hold down the
Index
button and press the
P
Power
button
to turn the printer on. After the All and Index lights begin
flashing, release the
Index
button.
