If you successfully printed a self-test page with good print quality, the printer is OK. If not, the easy steps
listed on the back often solve the problem.
Check the Print Cartridges
Plug in the printer.
Turn on the printer.
Lower input tray and open access door.
Press the "Change Cartridge" button and the cartridge mounted carriage will move to the center.
Remove print cartridge to confirm it is not a refilled cartridge, it has ink and is of correct type.
Verify all tape has been removed from the print cartridge and its nozzles free of dried ink.
Ensure the printer stands on a level surface
(this is crucial for proper functioning
of printer's out-of-paper sensor).
Load no more than 0.2 inch (5mm) stack but
no less than ten sheets of media in input tray correctly.
Set paper size selector, paper width guide, paper tray, and envelope selector to appropriate media size.
Install print cartridge.
Close access door.
Confirm printer power is off.
Hold paper feed button down while press and release power button.
Check the self test print out for good print quality.

Check the Printer
Turn off the printer.
Unplug the power cord from the printer.
Remove paper from input tray.
If encoder strip (behind top shaft that carriage top
rides on) has debris (oil, or paper fiber) on it, wipe
it off.
Look for paper jam. Clear paper jam if needed.
Verify the paper size selector can move the paper
size adjustment bracket back and forth sideways.
For paper jam, feed, or pick complaints:
- If paper size adjustment bracket is not made of
black plastic, send printer to repair.
- If bracket is made of plastic and printer serial
number is lower than SG67xxxxxx, send
printer to repair.
