Examine the document you printed. If you see any problems, repeat steps 1 through 4.

If there are still problems—especially if you see unwanted horizontal white lines—repeat

steps 1 through 4 one more time, but this time select the Super Clean option in step 2.

IMPORTANT

Select the Super Clean option only when you’ve already tried one

of the other two options (Black Only or All Colors). The Super Clean option
uses about 5% of the original amount of ink in the cartridge.
