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
