Aligning the Print Head

If printed ruled lines are misaligned or print results are otherwise unsatisfactory, adjust the print head
position.

Note

• If the remaining ink level is low, the print head alignment sheet will not be printed correctly.

You need to prepare: a sheet of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper (including recycled paper)*

* Be sure to use paper that is white and clean on both sides.

1. Make sure that the power is turned on.

2. Load a sheet of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper in the rear tray.

3. Open the front cover gently, then pull out the paper output tray.

Important

• If the disc tray guide is open, close it.

4. Hold down the RESUME/CANCEL button until the POWER lamp flashes white four times,

then release it immediately.

The print head alignment sheet will be printed and the print head position will be adjusted automatically.

Do not perform any other operations until the printer completes the printing of the print head alignment
sheet. This takes about 2 to 3 minutes.

Note

• If the automatic adjustment of the print head position has failed, the Alarm lamp flashes orange.

• If the print results are still not satisfactory after adjusting the print head position as described above,

adjust the print head position manually from the computer.
