870 - 484 - 4525When printers work well, we take them for granted, and when they don’t, we wonder why we buy them. Aligning a printer is not necessarily torture. By following a few basic tips, you can troubleshoot your printer and align it to function properly.
Cartridges when you have an alignment problem, often the first step is to check the printer cartridges. If they are not installed correctly in your machine, this can cause smudged and blurry prints. Try removing the cartridges and reinstalling them.
Use the installation CD If the cartridge looks good, look at the original manufacturer’s CD-ROM that came with the printer. Many printers include an alignment application on the CD, which allows you to get easy instructions. Use the control panel most modern printers have an alignment function built into the printer itself.
Use your printer’s control panel, look at the Preferences, and see if there is an alignment feature. If so, select it and place a white sheet for the test print. Cartridge cleaning sometimes dirty or jammed cartridges can cause printers to become misaligned.

Those that are low on ink get stuck and can’t release the ink, causing problems that misalign your printer. This should be the last option, as replacing cartridges can be expensive.
