Calibrate color
Perform a color calibration if the colors in photos that are printed with the photo print
cartridge consistently look incorrect.

photo. If the color is still incorrect, perform a color calibration.
To calibrate color:
1. Load Letter or A4 plain, white paper in the In tray.
2. Verify that both a tri-color print cartridge and a photo print cartridge are installed
in the printer.
3. Open the printer Toolbox.
4. Click Calibrate Color.
5. Click Start, and then follow the onscreen instructions.
Note This feature might not be available in your operating environment.
Calibrate print quality
Perform a print quality calibration if light or dark horizontal lines appear in documents
that are printed with the tri-color and black print cartridges.
Before performing a print quality calibration, clean the print cartridges, and then reprint
the document. If the lines still occur, perform a print quality calibration.
Follow these steps to calibrate print quality:
1. Load Letter or A4 plain, white paper in the In tray.
2. Verify that both a black and a tri-color print cartridge are installed in the printer.
3. Open the printer Toolbox.
4. Click Print Quality Calibration.
5. Click Continue, and then follow the onscreen instructions.
Note This feature might not be available in your operating environment.

cartridges might be low on ink or might need to be cleaned.
If the print cartridges are not low on ink, follow these steps to clean the print cartridges
automatically:
