Head Position
The print head is out of position if you see these:
• Broken vertical lines
• Blurred, smeared or streaked colors
Do the following procedure to correct these problems.
1. [ /Menu]> "Counter"
2. [ /Menu] or [ ]> "Maintenance"> [#Enter]> "Nozzle Check".
3. [ /Menu] or [ ]> "Head Position"> [#Enter]> "Select "Pr. Test Pattern"
4. [#Enter]> [ /Menu] or [ ]> "High Speed", "Standard", "High Quality", or "Envelope Print">
[#Enter]. The test pattern prints.
Do not start any other operation until printing stops.
5. Look at the patterns and determine which is the best.
• The best pattern is the gray square with straight vertical lines on both sides.
• The pattern setting is read as a matrix value from the pattern. For example, if the best pattern is
in column "+2", line "A", the entry for adjustment will be "A" then "+2"
6. [ /Menu]> "Adjustment"> [#Enter].
7. [ /Menu] or [ ]> Select same setting selected for "Pr. Test Pattern" in Step 4 ("High Speed",
"Standard", "High Quality", or "Envelope Print")> [#Enter].
8. [ /Menu] or [ ]> Select the letter of the line of the best pattern noted in Step 5> [#Enter].
9. [ /Menu] or [ ]> Select the number of the line of the best pattern noted in Step 5> [#Enter]. This
completes the adjustment.
10. Push [Escape] to leave the Menu mode.
