Cause What to do
The print head nozzles are
clogged. Clean the print head. See page 5-6. If
this does not work after a few trials,
contact your dealer.
The ink cartridge is older
than six months or beyond
the date on the packaging. Clean the print head. If that does not
solve the problem, replace the ink
cartridge. If the
V light is off, see “Fixing
Ink Cartridge Problems” on page 6-22.

prints from an application.
