Steps to basic printing

Compare the diagonal lines above the printed bars to the
diagonal lines below the printed bars. Look for a break in the
diagonal lines. A broken line indicates clogged nozzles.
If the bottom line still has breaks, run the test two more times.
• If the print quality is satisfactory after running the test three times,
the print nozzles are clean. You do not need to complete the
remaining steps.
• If the print quality of both sets of lines is not satisfactory after
running the test three times, go to step 6.
