Cleaning the cartridges

To clean the print head, load plain paper in the paper tray and make sure the
printer is turned on. Then follow these steps:

1

Cick Utilities in the Page Setup dialog box.

2

In the Utilities dialog box, find Clean Print Cartridges and click Start.

The printer cleans the print head, printing a page in the process.

The image prints wavy or distorted

Make sure that you are using a recommended type of paper. If the problem
persists, see the information about service and support that comes with
the printer.

Stains appear on printed pages

Stains on the backs or tops of printed pages may mean that ink has spilled
inside the printer. If so, the ink can transfer to the rollers and from there to
the paper.

Turn the printer off and unplug it. Then open the printer and carefully clean
the rollers and platen with a soft, dry cloth.
