The printer acts as if it’s working, but nothing is printed on the page
If your printer takes the paper, but doesn’t actually print anything, try the
following:
m If the ink cartridge is new, make sure that you removed the orange plastic
cap and orange tape from its print head.
m Make sure the ink cartridge and the ink tanks are correctly installed. (For
instructions, see “Replacing Ink Tanks” and “Replacing an Ink Cartridge”
in Chapter 5).
m The printer may be out of ink. You can check by seeing whether the test
page prints. To print a test page, see “Printing the Test Page” in the section
“Cleaning the Print Head” in Chapter 5.
