Manual Calibrations 4-13
Manual Jet Mapping Jets that are missing or misfiring are usually detected by the
AutoJet calibration. Alternatively, you can map out jets manually
using the Manual Jet Mapping function. You may want to manu-
ally map weak or misdirected jets that AutoJet does not substi-
tute.
Tip
AutoJet is the automatic version of this calibration
(see “AutoJet” on page 4-3 for details).
Tip
For best results, print the prime bars and purge the
printheads as necessary to ensure the maximum
number of working jets. See “Checking Jet Health”
on page 3-7 for instructions.
