How can I print out a nozzle check pattern for my Canon Pixma i80 or ip90 printer? You can print out a nozzle check pattern from your Canon printer by doing the following. First, load a letter sized plain paper in the sheet feeder. Then, press and hold the 'Resume/Cancel' button. When the Power lamp blinks twice, release the button. You will notice that the Power lamp will blink and the nozzle check pattern will be printed.
