Aligning the Print Head

to solve these problems from your computer using the Print
Head Alignment utility in the printer software.

printer is at least 210 mm (8.27 inches) wide; for example, A4
size paper loaded short edge first. Otherwise, the print head
will spray ink directly onto the platen, which could mar future

2. Click the Utility tab in the printer software window. Then click
the Print Head Alignment button.
