Re: My copy prints come out blurry after changing ink...
Try this:
Checking the print quality:
- Press the Ink or Ink Management key on the control panel.
- Press the up or down navigation key to select TEST PRINT and press Menu/Set or Set.
- Press the up or down navigation key to select PRINT QUALITY and press Menu/Set or Set.
- Press Color (Colour) Start. The MFC/DCP begins printing the Print Quality Test Sheet.
- By reviewing this Test Sheet, you can determine if the print quality needs improvement.
- Closely examine the print quality of the four color blocks that are formed by short diagonal lines on the Test Sheet.
If all lines are clear and visible, press 1 (YES) and press Stop/Exit.
If you can see missing short lines, press 2 (NO) and go to Step 7.
- The display will then ask you if the print quality is OK for black and three colors. Press 2 (NO) for black or three colors with the problem.
- The display will then show START CLEANING? 1.YES 2. NO.
Press 1 (YES) and the MFC will start cleaning the color ink cartridges.
- After the cleaning is finished, press Color (Colour) Start. The MFC/DCP will print another Print Quality Test Sheet.
- If you can see missing short lines in any of the four color blocks press 2 (NO) and repeat the quality check and cleaning process. Repeat this procedure at least 5 times if print quality remains a problem. If short lines are still missing after the fifth cleaning and test print, replace the necessary ink cartridges. If the print quality of the 4 color blocks is OK, press 1 (YES).
Setting the Alignment:
- Press the Ink or Ink Management key on the control panel.
- Press the up or down navigation key to select TEST PRINT and press Menu/Set or Set.
- Press the up or down navigation key to select ALIGNMENT and press Menu/Set or Set.
- Press Black (Mono) Start or Color (Colour) Start. The MFC/DCP begins printing the Alignment Check Sheet.
- By reviewing this Test Sheet, you can determine if the alignment needs adjustment.
- Examine the 600 DPI and 1200 DPI test prints on the Alignment Check Sheet. If the number 5 sample of both the 600 DPI and 1200 DPI most closely matches the 0 sample, press 1 (YES).
If one of the other samples is a better match for the 0 sample, press 2 (NO). The display will then prompt you to select the sample that most closely matches the 0 sample for 600 DPI and then 1200 DPI.
- Press Stop/Exit.
