Aligning the print cartridge
The first time you install a print cartridge in the printer, the printer aligns it
automatically. However, if colors in the printouts are misaligned, or if the alignment
page does not print correctly when you install a new print cartridge, use the following
procedure to align the print cartridge.
1. Press Menu.
2. Select Tools, then press OK.
3. Select Align cartridge, then press OK.
4. Following the directions on the printer screen, load paper so the printer can print
an alignment page. Use plain paper or index cards to conserve photo paper.
5. Press OK to begin aligning the print cartridge.
When the printer finishes aligning the cartridge, it prints an alignment page to
confirm that the alignment was successful.
