Aligning the print cartridges
Typically, you only align print cartridges after installing or replacing a cartridge. However, you
may also need to align cartridges when:
• Characters are improperly formed or are misaligned at the left margin.
• Vertical, straight lines are wavy.
To align the cartridges:
1 Load plain paper. For help, see Load the paper.
2 From the Apple menu, choose Control Panels.
3 Choose the Lexmark Z45 Control Panel.
4 From the Cartridges tab, click Align Cartridges.
The Cartridge Alignment dialog box appears.
5 Decide how you want to align the cartridges:
– If you choose Automatic Alignment (recommended), the printer determines the
best alignment and automatically aligns the cartridges.
– If you choose Manual Alignment, you must select the best alignment values from
the printed page.
