Hi to Everyone,
My printer has been running under Debian Linux for years, without
problem, except this : I have not found how to align the heads when
replacing ink cartridges. You are supposed to do this each time you
install a new cartridge, or else high quality color printing is not
obtained.
So, up to now, at each new cartridge installed, I had to disconnect my
printer and re-connect it to a very old PC running under Windows 95 so
as to perform the head alignment.
According to this[0] page, you should use the hplip driver. Are
you? If so, are you saying that the "align the heads" functionality
isn't part of the utility? (I find that difficult to believe.)
$ apt-cache show hplip

ink-level monitoring or pen cleaning and calibration
