Paper Feed
Action
Your printer feeds a sheet of paper and prints a
nozzle test pattern similar to the one shown:
Check the gold-plated contacts, on the end of the
cable that connect to the carrier, for dirt and wear.
Use only a clean dry cloth to clean the contacts.
Also check the cable for damage. You may need to
remove the cable from the carrier to inspect it.
Intermittent nozzle failures can be caused by worn
parts in the maintenance station. Perform the
"Maintenance Station Service Check" on
page
2-6, and then return to this check.
Ink smudging and smearing can be caused by
paper problems or problems in the paper feed
area.
Check the following:
• Correct type of paper is being used.
• Paper for curl or wrinkles.
• Feed rollers for wear, dirt, or looseness.
• Gears for wear or binds.
• Paper path for obstructions.
