needed. You can start the cleaning process

Clean the print head and ink cartridges if you
get a horizontal line in the text or graphics or
blank text on your printed pages. You can
clean Black only, three colors at a time
(Yellow/Cyan/Magenta), or all four colors at
once.
Cleaning the print head consumes ink.
Cleaning too often uses ink unnecessarily.

the print head may cause permanent
damage and may void the print head's
warranty.
