Using the Control Panel
1. Turn on the printer and load paper in the built-in sheet
feeder, making sure the right edge guide is positioned
correctly for your paper’s width and the paper release lever
is in the single sheet position. See page 3-6 for instructions.
2. Turn off your printer.
3. Hold down the
Pause button and turn on the printer to
turn on print head alignment mode.
The printer loads a sheet of paper and prints an instruction
sheet telling you how to select a language (the default
setting is English). The printer can then print instructions
on aligning the print heads in the language you choose.
4. Press the
Alt button until the Ink Out B and Ink Out A
lights on your control panel indicate the language you want
to use.

Pause button. The printer prints instructions on
aligning the print heads using the control panel.

are aligned, turn off the printer to exit print head alignment
mode.
7. After five seconds, turn on the printer to resume printing.
Caution:
Load paper that’s at least
8.3 inches (210 mm) wide
so ink doesn’t spray onto
the platen.
