input bin so a test pattern can be printed. A diagonal line will
print across the media. If a gap is present within the diagonal
line, one or more nozzles of the ink jet cartridge maybe
blocked and need to be cleaned. Clean the ink jet cartridge by
performing a purge (see menu option below). If the purge does
not clear the nozzles, then remove the Ink Jet Cartridge. See
