Use the correct settings for the project you’re printing, following
the instructions in Chapter 3.
The print head nozzles are
clogged.
Clean the print heads. See Chapter 5 for instructions.
The

are incorrect for your
document (Macintosh).

Rendering Intent
setting. See Chapter 3 for more information.
The ink cartridges are low
on ink or one or more ink
colors are empty.
Check the

color ink out lights to see which cartridge
you may need to replace. See Chapter 5 for instructions.
The colors displayed on
your monitor don’t match
the printed colors.
Because your monitor and printer use different technologies
to represent colors, your printed colors can’t exactly match the
colors you see on your monitor screen. Use the
ICM
(Windows 95) or
ColorSync
(Macintosh) settings. See Chapter 3
for more information.
The color settings in your
application software need
adjustment.
You may be able to adjust various color settings in your application
software. See your software documentation for more information.
