Reinstall the Print Cartridges

1.Reinstall the print cartridges and close the printer’s top cover.

3.Print a self-test page. On the Printer Services tab of the HP Toolbox, click the Print a self-test page button.

4.Examine the printout for ink streaking.

N O T E

This procedure should remove all fibers that would cause ink to streak on a print- out; however, it is possible that fibers may have been missed. If the printout still shows streaking, repeat the procedure until the self-test printout is clear and sharp. It is recommended that you perform this cleaning every 3 months. This procedure and additional maintenance tips are located on the Would Wide Web at http://www.deskjet-support.com/maintenance.
