If the print quality still has not improved, your photo cartridge may
be old or damaged and may need to be replaced.

See “Replacing the Photo Cartridge” on page 46 to replace the
photo cartridge before it is empty.

If print quality remains a problem after replacing the photo
cartridge, contact your dealer.

least once every month.
