The control panel displays this message:

Print Jet Map?

If you have a calibration pattern from a recent print, you can use it to calibrate the heads. Press
Cancel and go to the next step. Otherwise, press the Proceed (

►) key.

The printer prints a jet map test pattern.

If a line segment is missing or broken, the jet number shown next to it is out. A code letter if present
provides further information:

R — no replacement

S — user disqualified “soft” jetout

H — user disqualified “hard” jetout

D — disqualified (and replaced) by AutoJet

When the calibration pattern has printed, the control panel displays a menu with the following
options:

Report individual soft bad jets — enables you to report a “soft” bad jet, which can be
automatically reenabled if AutoJet finds it working.

Report individual hard bad jets — enables you to report a “hard” bad jet, which will not be
checked or reenabled by AutoJet.

Clear individual bad jets — enables you to clear (mark as good) a jet.

View current bad jets — lists the bad jets on a given printhead.

Clear all bad jets for a head — clears (marks as good) all jets on a selected head currently
marked as unusable.

Clear all bad jets — clears (marks as good) all jets currently marked as unusable.

A “soft” bad jet is a jet that you believe is temporarily out, based on past performance. A “hard” bad
jet is a jet that you believe is permanently out.
