Selected Answer: B
After replacing the ink cartridges, the issue of shadowing (where prints appear to have blurry or overlapping images or text) could indicate that the printer needs an alignment. Many printers have an alignment process that ensures the cartridges or printheads are positioned correctly for optimal print quality. Running this process is a common troubleshooting step when dealing with print issues after cartridge replacement.

This was a tricky question for me because many inkjet printers automatically run the printer alignment whenever you turn on the printer or change the cartridges.

B. Run the printer’s alignment process. When print jobs contain shadowing after replacing ink cartridges, it's often indicative of misalignment in the printing process. Running the printer’s alignment process can help recalibrate the print heads and ensure that the ink is applied correctly onto the page. Reseating the ink cartridges could also be attempted, but alignment is typically the first step to address print quality issues like shadowing.
