Check the Print Head Nozzles

You can print a nozzle check pattern to check for clogged nozzles using the WorkForce 30 Series control panel or your software.

From the Control Panel

1.	Load a few sheets of plain paper in the sheet feeder.

2.	Turn off the WorkForce 30 Series.

3.	Hold down the  paper button as you press the  power button to turn the WorkForce 30 Series back on. Hold down both buttons until the  power light begins to flash, then release the buttons.

4.	Check the nozzle check pattern that prints to see if there are gaps in the lines.

5.	If there are no gaps, the print head is clean and you can continue printing.

If there are gaps or the pattern is faint, clean the print head.
