Cleaning the Print Head
The print head on a new ink cartridge needs to be cleaned
to ensure the best possible print quality. The printer
automatically cleans the print head when you follow these
steps:
1. Make sure the printer is turned on and on-line.
2. Press the ON LINE and PRINT MODE buttons at the
same time.
§ When the ON LINE light starts to blink, release the buttons.
The ON LINE indicator will blink for about 12 seconds
while the printer cleans the print head. When complete, the
ON LINE indicator will stop blinking and go off. The
printer will stay off-line until you press the ON LINE
button.
Cleaning the print head consumes a small amount of ink.
Repeating this procedure unnecessarily reduces the life of the
cartridge.
Loading a Stack of Paper
These steps show how to load a stack of plain paper and
test your printer. In the next chapter, you'll learn how to
print on different types of print.
You can stack about 100 sheets of plain paper in the sheet
feeder.
1. Make sure the paper selection lever is set to the back
position.
