Ink Tips How is ink used for various purposes other than printing? Ink may be used for purposes other than printing. When you use the Canon printer for the first time after you install the bundled ink tanks, the printer consumes a small amount of ink in the amount to enable printing by filling the nozzles of the Print Head with ink. For this reason, the number of sheets that can be printed with the first ink tanks is fewer than the succeeding ink tanks.

Maintenance Procedure If print results are blurred, colors are not printed correctly, or print results are unsatisfactory (e.g. misaligned printed ruled lines), perform the maintenance procedure below. Important • Do not rinse or wipe the print head and ink tank. This can cause trouble with the print head and ink tank. Note • Make sure that the orange protective tape does not remain on the ink tank. • Check the ink status.

Select the pattern that is closer to the printed nozzle check pattern on the confirmation screen.
Cleaning the Print Head If the pattern D or any color in the pattern C is not printed: (Example: Magenta pattern is not printed) The cleaning is required. Select Also B, then select Yes on the cleaning confirmation screen. The printer starts cleaning the print head.
Cleaning the Print Head Clean the print head if lines are missing or if horizontal white streaks are present in the printed nozzle check pattern. Cleaning unclogs the nozzles and restores the print head condition. Cleaning the print head consumes ink, so clean the print head only when necessary. You need to prepare: a sheet of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper 1. Check that printer is turned on. 2. Load a sheet of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper in the cassette. Loading Paper in the Cassette 3.
10. Examine the nozzle check pattern. Note • If the problem is not resolved after cleaning the print head twice, clean the print head deeply.
Deep Print Head Cleaning If print quality does not improve by the standard cleaning of the print head, clean the print head deeply. Cleaning the print head deeply consumes more ink than the standard cleaning of the print head, so clean the print head deeply only when necessary. You need to prepare: a sheet of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper 1. Check that printer is turned on. 2. Load a sheet of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper in the cassette. Loading Paper in the Cassette 3. Press the OK button. 4.
10. Examine the nozzle check pattern. If a particular color is not printed properly, replace the ink tank of that color. If the problem is not resolved, turn off the power and clean the print head deeply again after 24 hours. If the problem is still not resolved, the print head may be damaged. Contact your nearest Canon service center to request a repair.
Aligning the Print Head If printed ruled lines are misaligned or print results are otherwise unsatisfactory, adjust the print head position. Note • If the remaining ink level is low, the print head alignment sheet will not be printed correctly. Replace the ink tank whose ink is low. • If ink runs out as the print head alignment sheet is printed, an error message appears on the LCD. When Error Occurred You need to prepare: two sheets of A4 or Letter-sized plain paper 1. Check that printer is turned on. 2.
The print head alignment sheet is printed, and the print head is aligned automatically. This takes about 3 to 4 minutes. Note • If automatic print head alignment fails, an error message appears on the LCD. When Error Occurred 8. When completion message appears, select OK. Note • If the print results are still not satisfactory after adjusting the print head position as described above, adjust the print head position manually. For Windows: You can also align the print head manually from a computer.
Aligning the Print Head Manually Try aligning the print head manually after automatic print head alignment if printing results are not as expected, as when printed ruled lines are misaligned.
