Page 121: Printing The Nozzle Check Pattern
Printing the Nozzle Check Pattern Print the nozzle check pattern to determine whether the ink ejects properly from the print head nozzle. Note • If the remaining ink level is low, the nozzle check pattern will not be printed correctly. If the remaining ink level is low, refill ink tanks.
Page 122: Examining The Nozzle Check Pattern
Examining the Nozzle Check Pattern Examine the nozzle check pattern, and clean the print head if necessary. 1. Check if there are missing lines in the pattern A or horizontal white streaks in the pattern B. If there are missing lines in the pattern A: C: Good D: Bad (lines are missing) If there are horizontal white streaks in the pattern B:...
Page 123: Cleaning The Print Head
Cleaning the Print Head Clean the print head if lines are missing or if horizontal white streaks are present in the printed nozzle check pattern. Cleaning unclogs the nozzles and restores the print head condition. Cleaning the print head consumes ink, so clean the print head only when necessary. Check that printer is turned on.
Page 124: Deep Print Head Cleaning
Deep Print Head Cleaning If print quality does not improve by the standard cleaning of the print head, clean the print head deeply. Cleaning the print head deeply consumes more ink than the standard cleaning of the print head, so clean the print head deeply only when necessary.
Page 125: Aligning The Print Head
Aligning the Print Head If printed ruled lines are misaligned or print results are otherwise unsatisfactory, adjust the print head position. Note • If the remaining ink level is low, the print head alignment sheet will not be printed correctly. If the remaining ink level is low, refill ink tanks.
