Improving print quality
If your print quality is not satisfactory, you may need to refresh your
print cartridges. A simple cartridge alignment may improve your print
quality. However, if your printer still is not printing to your
satisfaction, you may need to clean the print nozzles.
Aligning print cartridges
Normally, you only align the print cartridges after you have installed
a new print cartridge. However, if the black portions of a graphic or
text do not align properly with the color portions, you need to realign
the print cartridges.
The following illustrations show a sample result of aligned and
misaligned print cartridges:
