align the print cartridges
The HP Fax prompts you to align print cartridges every time you install or
replace a print cartridge. You can also align the print cartridges at any time
from the front panel. Aligning the print cartridges ensures high-quality output.
Note: If you remove and reinstall the same print cartridge, the HP Fax will
not prompt you to align the print cartridges.
