Calibrating the Printer

Your printer has been calibrated at the factory so that vertical lines in your text and graphics are properly aligned. If you notice misaligned images in printouts, however, you can calibrate the printer as described in the following sections. You may need to do this after moving the printer to a new location, for example.

Before calibrating, verify that your printer needs it by printing a demonstration page. Turn off your printer; then hold down the Cleaning O button as you turn the printer back on.

Continue holding down the Cleaning O button for a few seconds after turning on the printer. Examine the demonstration printout; if vertical lines are truly misaligned, calibrate your printer. Do not calibrate your printer too often.
