Aligning the Print Head
If you notice a misalignment of vertical lines, you may be able
to solve this problem from your computer using the Print Head
Alignment utility in your printer software.
Note:
Do not start the Print Head Alignment utility while printing is in
progress; otherwise your printout may be marred.
1. Make sure the paper is loaded in the sheet feeder.

Caution:
Use paper at least 210 mm (8.27 inches) wide; for
example, A4 size paper loaded short edge first. Otherwise,
the print head will spray ink directly onto the platen.
2. Access the printer driver setting menu as described in
Chapter 3.
3. Click the
Utility
tab, then click the
Print Head Alignment
button.
4. Follow the messages on your screen to align the print head.
Ink Cartridge Problems
If output quality does not improve even after cleaning and
aligning the print head, you may need to replace one or both of
the ink cartridges.

or ink out light
flashes, follow the steps below.
If the or ink out light is flashing or is on, replace the empty
ink cartridge as described in “Replacing an Ink Cartridge” on
