When printheads are installed or replaced, the printer automatically prints two alignment pages to align the printheads. This process takes about eight minutes. You can print documents only after the automatic alignment pages have been printed.

Check the printer software installation

If the printer is turned off when printing, an alert message should appear on your computer screen; otherwise, the printer software might not be installed correctly. To resolve this, uninstall the software completely, and then reinstall the printer software. See Uninstalling the printer software.
