Checking the Print Head Nozzles

If you find that the printed image is unexpectedly faint or dots in
the printed image are missing, you may be able to identify the
problem by checking the print head nozzles.
You can check the print head nozzles from your computer with
the Nozzle Check utility in the printer software, or from the
printer itself by using the printer's control panel buttons.
