Printout Problems
Printout is Scued or Color is Missing
❏ 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. Perform a nozzle check, and then clean the print head if any of the print head nozzles are
clogged.
❏ If you printed when the ink levels were too low to be seen in the ink tank windows, rell the ink tanks to the
upper lines and then use the Power Ink Flushing utility to replace the ink inside the ink tubes. Aer you use the
utility, perform a nozzle check to see if print quality has improved.
