The printer runs a head cleaning cycle and a message 
appears on the LCD screen. Cleaning takes approximately 
30 seconds.

Caution: Never turn off the printer while the message “Print 
head cleaning in progress. Please wait.” appears on the LCD 
screen. You may damage it.

Do not insert the CD/DVD tray during cleaning.

test pattern.

Start

 to clean the 

print head again. 

If you don’t see any improvement after cleaning four or five 
times, turn the printer off and wait six hours. This allows 
any dried ink to soften. Then, try cleaning the print head 
again.

Examine the nozzle check pattern you printed. Each staggered 
line should be solid, with no gaps, as shown.

❏ If your printout looks okay, you’re done. 
❏ If you see any gaps (as shown below), clean the print head 

again. 

If your printouts look grainy or blurry, or you see light or dark 
lines, you may need to align the print head. 

Note: You may also see lines in your printouts if your cartridges are 
low on ink or you need to clean the print head.

Caution: Do not press the 

 Stop/Clear Settings button while 

printing an alignment sheet.

The steps below explain how to align the print head using the 
printer’s control panel. (You can also do this using your 
computer. See your Printer Basics manual or on-screen 
User’s Guide for instructions.)
