I Aligning the Print Heads
Two BJ cartridges are always installed in the S450 printer. Each time you replace a
BJ cartridge or switch BJ cartridges for a special print job, you must align the print
heads to ensure optimum results in printing.
There are two ways to align the print heads: automatically and manually. Normally you will
execute the automatic print head alignment feature of the printer driver. If this does not
work for some reason, then you can execute manual print head alignment.
