Check the quality of ink cartridges
Before printing and at regular intervals during printing, check the state and
quality of the ink cartridges to make sure that they are in optimal working
order.
Run the prime test
Running a prime test ensures that your cartridges print at optimal quality. This
prime test gives detailed information about the state of the cartridges and
suggest the appropriate print mode to use when you must compensate for
electronically damaged jets without losing quality during multi-pass printing.
However, when the jets become clogged (due to prolonged exposure to air or
disuse), you must clean them manually or compensate for them.
Océ recommends that you print this test daily to ensure the best possible print
quality and solve related problems before printing.
