Will print only hypertext in a note but not its regular text. Will not print a page wth ordinary text, too. On a wireless local area network with two laptops, one running Windows 10, the other running Windows 8.1

Hi chateau,

A test of your PIXMA MG5520 should be performed. This will tell us if the printer is working correctly. To do this, please load letter-sized paper in the PIXMA MG5520 and follow these steps:

1. Select SETUP from the HOME screen of your PIXMA MG5520.

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 the bottom of this post. If they differ, please perform a few printhead cleanings.

To perform cleanings, please follow these steps:

1. Select SETUP from the HOME screen of your PIXMA MG5520.

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? If it does not, please contact our support group using the following link:
