Align the printer
The HP Photosmart automatically aligns the print head when you install the ink cartridges
during the initial setup. The HP Photosmart also aligns the print head during periodic
maintenance to ensure excellent print quality. You might want to use this feature when
the self-test report shows streaking or white lines through any of the blocks of color.
If you still have print quality problems after aligning the printer, try cleaning the print head.
If print quality problems persist after aligning and cleaning, contact HP support.
To align the printer from the control panel
1. Load letter, A4, or legal unused plain white paper into the input tray.
2. Touch Setup on the display.
3. Touch Tools.
4. Touch Align Printer.
5. The HP Photosmart prints a test page, aligns the print head, and calibrates the printer.
Recycle or discard the page.
A success or failure message appears.
NOTE: If you have colored paper loaded in the input tray when you align the
printer, the alignment will fail. Load unused plain white paper into the input tray,
and then try the alignment again.
If the alignment fails again, you might have a defective sensor or ink cartridge.
