Description

Learn how to print a nozzle check pattern for the PIXMA G4270 from a Mac. If you're experiencing poor print quality (streaked / banded prints, incorrect colors, blank pages, etc.), a nozzle check will show you if any print head nozzles are clogged.

Solution

The nozzle check function allows you to check whether the print head is working properly by printing a nozzle check pattern. Print the pattern if printing results are not satisfactory, or if a specific color fails to print.

Nozzle Check

  1. Select Utilities from the Remote UI.

  2. Click Nozzle Check.

  3. Load one sheet of A4 size or Letter size plain paper into the rear tray.

  4. Check that the printer is on and then click Yes.
    Printing of the nozzle check pattern begins.

  5. When the dialog opens, check the print result. If the print result is normal, click All A.

    If the print result is smudged or if there are any unprinted sections, click Also B to clean the print head.
