Caution:
Never turn off the printer while the
Ppower light is flashing, unless the printer hasn’t moved or made any noise for more than 5 minutes.
3After the P power light stops flashing, print a page to test the print quality and reset the cleaning cycle.
If you’re connected directly to the printer, run a nozzle check. Go to step 4.
If you’re using DOS or printing over a network, open an application and print a document containing black and color data. Then go to step 8.
4Start an application, open a document, and access the printer settings dialog box as described in Printing from Windows or Printing from a Macintosh.
5Click the Utility tab (Windows) or the Utility icon (Macintosh). You see the Utility menu.
6Make sure paper is loaded in the printer and click the Nozzle Check icon, then click Next. The nozzle check pattern prints on your printer; see Examining the Nozzle Check Pattern for details.
7If the nozzle check pattern is complete, click Finish.
If the pattern is missing dots, click Clean to run another cleaning cycle.
8If you don’t see any improvement after cleaning two or three times, check the print quality solutions in Troubleshooting.
