Then clean the print head, if necessary. • Make sure the paper type setting matches the type of paper you loaded. • Make sure you loaded the printable side of the paper correctly for your product. • Turn off any high speed settings in your product software. • Adjust the print quality in the product software. • You may need to refill the ink. Visually check the ink levels. • If you have not used the product for a long time, run the Power Cleaning utility. Note: Power Cleaning consumes a lot of ink, so run this utility only if you cannot improve print quality by cleaning the print head.
