➪ To interpret the Prime test pattern
The test pattern consists of bands of color for each cartridge and a
sloping line. Within the Prime test pattern, each jet is represented
with a short horizontal line. Together, these short horizontal lines
form a “stair step” pattern. Clogged jets appear as missing or
misdirected lines in the “stair step” pattern. Electrically defective jets
appear as solid bars. Electrically defective jets can be automatically
compensated in certain modes. The print modes for which
compensation is available are shown clearly above the Prime.

A solid bar indicates an
electrically defective
jet. Jet Compensation
will automatically
compensate for that
jet.
A missing line or "gap",
misdirected line, or a
light-printing line
indicates a clogged jet.
The header lets you know
the number of passes for
which compensation is
available.
