The printer prints an operation check page including your printer’s

ROM version information, the ink counter code, and a nozzle check

pattern. Below are sample printouts.

Good sample

Print head needs to be cleaned

The above sample is in black and white, but the actual test prints in color

(CMYK).

If the nozzle check page does not print satisfactorily (for example,

if any segment of the printed lines is missing) there is a problem

with the printer. This could be a clogged ink nozzle or a misaligned

print head. See the next section for details on cleaning the print

head. For information on aligning the print head, see “Aligning the

Print Head” on page 19.

Cleaning the Print Head

If you find that the printed image is unexpectedly faint or dots in

the printed image are missing, you may be able to solve these

problems by cleaning the print head, which ensures that the

nozzles are delivering ink properly.

You can clean the print head from your computer using the Head

Cleaning utility, accessed through the printer software or the

shortcut icon.
