Aligning the Print Head

Aligning the print head is the most important thing you can do to ensure the
best print quality. If banding appears on your prints, if they look grainy or
blurry, or if you see misregistration or "ghosting," you need to align the print
head for each print mode you use.
If you haven't already done so, it's a good idea to run a nozzle check before
aligning the print head (see page 53). This ensures that the print head
alignment patterns print correctly.
Also check that the head height adjustment lever is in the correct position.
See page 54 for details.
