Cleaning takes about 30 seconds, during which the printer 
makes some noise and the green Processing light flashes.

4. When the green Processing light stops flashing, make sure 

paper is loaded in the printer and click 

Print nozzle check 

pattern

. Then click 

Print

. The nozzle check pattern is 

printed.

5. Examine the printed pattern. Each staggered horizontal and 

straight vertical line should be complete, with no gaps in the 
dot pattern, as shown below:

If the nozzle check pattern has no gaps or lines, click 

Finish

If any dots are missing (as shown below), click 

Clean

 to 

clean the print head again. 

If you don’t see any improvement after cleaning three or four 
times, try turning off the printer and waiting overnight—this 
allows any dried ink to soften—and then try cleaning the print 
head again. 

Aligning the Print Head

If your printouts contain misaligned vertical lines, or you see 
light or dark horizontal banding, you may need to align the 
print head. Make sure you’ve cleaned the print head first, as 
described in the previous section, to ensure that the problem 
isn’t caused by clogged nozzles. 

If your image looks texturized or blurry, make sure the 
platen gap lever is not in the 

^

position for envelopes. 

1. Turn on the printer and load a sheet of letter-size plain 

paper.

2.

4. Examine each row and select the line (1–15) in which the 

dots are best-aligned vertically (printed on top of each

Then enter the number of the best line for each row in the 
corresponding box on the screen: 

5. Click

Transporting the Printer

If you move your printer some distance, you need to prepare it 
for transportation in its original box or one of a similar size.

To avoid damage, always leave the ink cartridges 
installed when transporting the printer.

Follow these steps:

1. Turn on the printer, wait until the print head locks in the 

far right position, then turn off the printer.

2. Unplug the power cord from the electrical outlet. Then 

disconnect the printer cable from the printer.

3. Take out any paper and remove the paper support.
