❏ Perform a nozzle check to see if the print head nozzles are clogged. Perform a nozzle check, and then
clean the print head if any of the print head nozzles are clogged. If you have not used the printer for a
long time, the print head nozzles may be clogged and ink drops may not be discharged.
❏ If you printed when the ink levels were too low to be seen in the ink tank windows, rell the ink tanks
to the upper lines and then use the Power Cleaning utility to replace the ink inside the ink tubes. Aer
