Aligning The Printhead - Canon W7200 User Manual

Aligning the Printhead

If you notice broken vertical lines or deviation in colors in your prints,
execute Print Pattern A and align the printhead. Before printing a printhead
alignment pattern, make sure A3 size or larger roll media is loaded.
Follow the procedure below to align the printhead.
Note
z When you execute Print Pattern A, use the media most commonly used with the
printer.
z If you use cut sheets to print the test pattern to align the printhead, prepare at least
three sheets of A3 size or larger. The sheets should be new, not the blank sides of
used paper or other media. The procedure with cut sheets is slightly different, so
you will need to follow the instructions displayed on the operation panel.
1
If the printer is off, press the Power button to switch the printer on.
After a few seconds "Online" is displayed in the operation panel and the
Online lamp lights.
2
Press the Online button twice to display "MAIN MENU".
