Irregular Gaps
Irregular gaps appearing in the test pattern at powerup usually
indicate that air is trapped within the printhead. Irregular gaps can
also be caused by a concentration of ink.
Perform a printhead clean to remove the air bubbles or ink concentration.
(See Chapter 4 for printhead cleaning procedures.)
Irregular gaps may also appear when the voltage or phase setting is
incorrect; however, always perform a printhead clean before attempting to
adjust the printhead voltage level. (See your system software operator's
manual for details on adjusting printhead voltage and phase levels.)
A Single Line of Dots
A single line of dots indicates that the printhead needs to be cleaned.
(See Chapter 4 for printhead cleaning procedures.)
