A “printhead monitoring” message
This is not an error message. The message is displayed whenever the Printhead monitoring option
is set to Intensive. If you change the setting to Optimized, the message will not appear. See
Manage printhead monitoring.
A “printheads are limiting performance” message
This message appears on the front panel during printing when the printer has detected that one or
more printheads are not performing optimally, and so it needs to make extra passes to maintain print
quality. To eliminate this message, choose one of the following:
● Select a higher print quality; see Change the print quality.
● Clean the printheads; see Recover (clean) the printheads.
● Use the Image Diagnostics Print to identify which printhead is causing the problem; see How do
I... (Image Diagnostics Print topics).
