Cleaning print nozzles
1Load plain paper in the printer.
2From the Control Program’s Cartridges tab, select Clean Print Nozzles. For help, see page 21.
The printer feeds a sheet of paper and prints a nozzle test pattern, similar to the one shown:
Broken lines at the top of the page indicate clogged nozzles.
Unbroken lines at the bottom of the page indicate the nozzles were cleaned.
3Compare the diagonal lines above the printed bars to the diagonal lines below the printed bars. Look for a break in the diagonal lines above the printed bars. Broken lines indicate clogged nozzles.
•If the bottom lines have breaks, run the test up to two more times. If the print quality is satisfactory after running the test three times, the print nozzles are clean.
•If the print quality of both lines is still not satisfactory, wipe the print cartridge nozzles. For help, see the next section.
