Inkjet nozzles clog when a printer sits unused. Run the 'clean print heads' routine from the printer software (sometimes two or three times), print a test page, check new cartridges for leftover protective tape, reseat cartridges and check the real ink level. If blank pages continue, the cartridge or printhead may need replacing.
Key takeaways
- Run head cleaning and a test page.
- Check for protective tape.
- Reseat cartridges and check ink.
- Persistent blanks: replace the cartridge or head.
