Check the ink cartridges

of one or more colors of ink. Check the status of the ink cartridges
in the Toolbox, and then replace any low or empty ink cartridges.

Maintaining the ink cartridges.
Check the printheads

clean the printheads. To clean the printheads, open the Toolbox,
click the Printer Services tab, and then click Clean Printheads.
For more information about the printheads, see Maintaining the
printheads.
