❏ Do not use the Nozzle Check, Head Cleaning, or Print Head
Alignment utility while printing is in progress, as doing so may
mar the printout
Status Monitor 3
Provides you with printer status information, such as the amount
of ink remaining, and checks for printer errors.
This utility is available only if:
❏ The Stylus Scan is connected directly to the host computer via
the parallel port [LPT1], or via USB.
❏ Your system is configured to support bidirectional
communication.
Nozzle Check
Checks the print head nozzles for clogging. Check the nozzles if
you notice print or copy quality has declined and after cleaning
to confirm that the print head nozzles have been cleaned. If the
nozzle check indicates the print head needs cleaning, you can
access the Head Cleaning utility directly from the Nozzle Check
utility. See “Checking the Print Head Nozzles” on page 11-2.
Head Cleaning
Cleans the print head. You may need to clean the head when you
notice print quality has declined. Use the Nozzle Check utility
first to confirm that the head needs to be cleaned. You can access
the Nozzle Check utility directly from the Head Cleaning utility.
See “Cleaning the Print Head” on page 11-4.
