Printout Problems
Printout is Scuffed 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, refill the ink tanks to the
upper lines and then use the Power Cleaning utility to replace the ink inside the ink tubes. After you use the
utility, perform a nozzle check to see if print quality has improved.
