Use 32-bit Spooler

Select this option for consistently faster print processing under Windows 95/98. This option is only selectable if operating under Windows 95/98 and if the included 32-Bit Print Spooler software has been installed. When selected, this option allows the printer driver to send all print jobs to the 32-Bit Print Spooler rather than to the Windows system print spooler. See Part C of this section for complete details on the 32-Bit Print Spooler. This option and the 32-Bit Print Spooler software will not function in Windows NT/2000.

Select the Clean button to send a simple test print pattern to the printer. Be sure to have a CD template installed. This test print pattern purges the ink cartridge nozzles and lets you know if any one of the Yellow, Magenta, or Cyan nozzles is clogged. If one of these colors does not appear on the test print, repeat the cleaning procedure. If nozzles still appear to be clogged, remove the cartridge and gently wipe the nozzle area sideways with a clean water-dampened cloth. If after several cleanings a color still does not appear on the test print, the cartridge may be damaged or empty and may need to be replaced.

Select the Change button to install a fresh, new ink cartridge or to switch back and forth between a previously used color cartridge and a previously used monochrome cartridge. After the cartridge has been replaced according to the instructions in
