To align the ink cartridges from the <strong>HP</strong> software<br />
1. Load letter or A4, unused, plain white paper in the input tray. For more information,<br />
see Load media.<br />
NOTE: If you have colored paper loaded in the input tray when you align the ink<br />
cartridges, the alignment will fail. Load unused plain white paper into the input<br />
tray, and then try the alignment again.<br />
2. Follow the instructions for your operating system. The product prints an ink cartridge<br />
alignment sheet.<br />
Windows<br />
a. Open the Toolbox software. For instructions, see Open the Toolbox.<br />
b. Click the Device Services tab.<br />
c. Click Align the ink cartridges.<br />
Mac OS X<br />
a. Open the <strong>HP</strong> Utility. For instructions, see Open the <strong>HP</strong> Utility.<br />

3. Place the alignment sheet face down on the scanner glass. For more information, see<br />
Load an original on the scanner glass.<br />
4. Press OK to scan the alignment sheet.<br />
After the alignment sheet is scanned, alignment is complete. Recycle or discard the<br />
alignment sheet.<br />
Clean the ink cartridges<br />
Use this feature when there is streaking, white lines through any of the lines of color or<br />
when a color is muddy. Do not clean ink cartridges unnecessarily, as this wastes ink and<br />
shortens the life of the ink nozzles.<br />
