Utility Tab

Nozzle Check:

Prints a nozzle check pattern to check if the print head nozzles are clogged.

Print Head Cleaning:

Cleans the clogged nozzles in the print head. Because this feature uses some ink, clean the print head only if the nozzles are clogged. Print a nozzle check pattern and then select Cleaning if there are just a few defects in the pattern. Power Cleaning consumes more ink than Cleaning. Only use this if there are many defects in the nozzle check pattern.
