# Printer Moves But Ink Is Not Ejected

- Check 1: Are the Print Head nozzles clogged?

  Print the Nozzle Check Pattern to determine whether the ink ejects properly from the print head nozzles.

  Refer to Routine Maintenance for the Nozzle Check Pattern printing, Print Head Cleaning, and Print Head Deep Cleaning.

  - If the Nozzle Check Pattern is not printed correctly:

    After performing the Print Head Cleaning, print the Nozzle Check Pattern and examine the pattern.

  - If the problem is not resolved after performing the Print Head Cleaning twice:

    Perform the Print Head Deep Cleaning

    If the problem is not resolved after performing the Print Head Deep Cleaning, try it again.

  - If the problem is not resolved after performing the Print Head Deep Cleaning twice:

    Ink may have run out. Replace the FINE Cartridge.

- Check 2: Is the FINE Cartridge installed properly?

  Remove the FINE Cartridge, then reinstall it. The print result may be improved by reinstalling the FINE Cartridge.

  Also, check that the protective tape (A) is removed.

- Check 3: When a FINE Cartridge runs out of ink, replace it with a new one.
