Caring for your print cartridges
25 
Improving print quality
If your print quality is not satisfactory, you may need to refresh your 
print cartridge. A simple cartridge alignment may improve your print 
quality. However, if your printer still is not printing to your 
satisfaction, you may need to clean the print nozzles.
Aligning your print cartridge
When you install a new print cartridge, you should use the Align 
Cartridges feature to help align the printhead. This ensures that you get 
the best print quality from your Lexmark Z11 Series Color Jetprinter. 
1
Use the Control Program to begin alignment. For help opening 
the Control Program, see the tip in the shaded margin. 
A dialog box appears on your screen. The printer prints a 
test page with a group of patterns. Each pattern has a 
number under it.

On the printed test page, locate the number under the pattern 
that comes closest to forming a straight line. In the example 
above, line 3 comes the closest to forming a straight line.
