Hello.

 

First, please make sure that the ink tanks are installed in the printer correctly and are in the correct order.  The order from left to right is as follows:

 

CLI-251 M
CLI-251 Bk
CLI-251 Y
PGI-250 PGBk
CLI-251 C

 

Next, a test of your PIXMA MG5620 should be performed.  This will tell us if the printer is working correctly.  To do this, please load letter-sized paper in the PIXMA MG5620 and follow these steps:

 

 1.  Select SETUP from the HOME screen.

 2.  Rotate the menu to Maintenance and press <OK>.

 3.  Press <OK> on Print nozzle check pattern.

 4.  Press <OK> on Yes.

The Nozzle Check will print.  Please compare your printout to the example that has been attached to this message.  If they differ, please perform a few printhead cleanings.

 

To perform cleanings, please follow these steps:

 

 1.  Select SETUP from the HOME screen.

 2.  Rotate the menu to Maintenance and press <OK>.

 3.  Press <OK> on Cleaning.

 4.  Press <OK> on Yes.

 5.  Press <OK> on Yes.

 

After a few cleanings, please print another Nozzle Check.

 

Does the Nozzle Check print correctly?
