necessary to remove the cartridge and actually clean the print

Change Cartridge
If you need to change cartridges, it is a good idea to use the
Change Cartridge
button in the Configuration Utility. This
ensures the most accurate tracking of ink levels. To change a
cartridge, click the
Change Cartridge
button. The cartridge

be prompted to let the system know whether or not you are
installing a new or used color or monochrome cartridge. Once
installed, click the
OK
button and the system will update your
cartridge levels.
Alignment Calibration
The Cartridge Alignment prints a test print and then
automatically scans the print to configure your printer for
bidirectional printing and to align the color and black
cartridges for Color+Black printing. It is important to perform
this calibration every time you change a cartridge. If you forget
to perform this calibration you will be prompted to do so
before your first print from the new cartridge.
Image Alignment
The Image Alignment button will allow you to nudge the
image up, down, left, or right on your disc. To center the
image, click the Image Alignment button. You will be
