Monitoring and adjusting the printer's performance
From the control panel, you can perform many tasks to keep this printer in good working
order. For example, you can check the status of the printer’s inkjet nozzle to ensure high-
quality prints. Kodak recommends that you run a nozzle check if you are experiencing
changes in image quality. You can also use the Printhead Alignment function if you see
