Print Head Alignment corrects the installation positions of the print head and improves misalignment of colors and lines.
This printer supports two head alignment methods: automatic head alignment and manual head alignment. Normally, the printer is set for automatic head alignment.
If the printing results of automatic Print Head Alignment are not satisfactory, perform manual head alignment.
The procedure for performing automatic Print Head Alignment is as follows:
Print Head Alignment
-
Open the Canon IJ Printer Assistant Tool.
-
Click Print Head Alignment.
The Print Head Alignment dialog box opens.

In the cassette, load two sheets of plain A4-sized or Letter-sized paper.
The number of sheets to be used differs when you select the manual head alignment.
-
Check that the printer is on and then click Start.
Follow the instructions in the message.
Wait until printing ends before performing other operations. Printing takes about 3 to 4 minutes to complete.
To print and check the current setting, open the Print Head Alignment dialog box, and click Print Alignment Value.
